Crash Into Me

Where were you 3 years ago?

Did I mention I've now been married for 3 whole years? Lacey and I's 3rd anniversary was Tuesday, and it was great. We went out to eat, and she got me Seinfeld season 7, Scrubs season 1 (we have all the others already) and Stranger than Fiction. I'm pumped! But I've been reminiscing lately about the last three years...quite a lot has happened! Anyway, we looked at the wedding pictures and were conjuring up some old memories of that day, especially since we have a wedding on Saturday, and I'm doing the music for the reception, just like I did for mine. The only difference is, I worked on mine for like 10 months, and I was given about 6 days for this one. Oh well, I digress. In the spirit of reminiscence (not a word, I'm sure) I went digging into the archives of Christin's blog. Here's what she had to say about the festivities (while we were off galavanting in Mexico...ahhhhhh, Mexico, how I miss you...sorry):

What a weekend: President Reagan passed away, J. Lo got married again, Smarty Jones sealed his fate as a gluestick, and Josh and Lacey got married.

I really enjoyed the wedding festivities. It all started Thursday night at the bachelorette party...I won't devulge any details because, you know, what happens at the bacholette party, stays at the bachelorette party. (I really hate that word "bachelorette".)
Friday was the rehearsal, and I was the official wedding coordinator, a job I have never really done before. I learned a lot about what to do and what not to do in case I end up coordinating for any other weddings. The rehearsal dinner was delicious. Aaron and Amy cooked for it and did a great job. Then of course, we had all the toasts. I really wanted to give a toast, since I've known them both for a long time and had lots of memories I could have shared, but as I didn't think about it before hand, I decided not to give a toast. Since I find that toasts are almost always better when they are written (or planned) ahead of time, I didn't want to stand up and babble on or *more likely* get all weepy and not be able to finish. Maybe I should start planning a toast now for Rachel and Andrew's wedding.
Anyway, the wedding was Saturday evening. I ran around before hand making sure the little details were taken care of. Lacey looked absolutely lovely and the whole style of the wedding suited her very well. We got started on time, no attendants were chewing gum, no one passed out, and they are now officially married, so I figure I did alright with the coordinating.
The reception was super fun. They did a great job picking out music. I think I danced for 4 or 5 hours straight (I only sat out one or two "couple skate" songs.) I was exhausted by the end of the night, but the fun was well worth the exhaustion. I can't believe it, but I'm kind of sad I won't be going to any more weddings this summer.
It's Monday again and I'm tanked up on benedryl and coffee. Should be an interesting day.
