It’s all over!
Posted on August 22, 2010
The wedding weekend is over–Hugh and I are exhausted, but we had such a good time.
The weather was perfect and there was a slight breeze. The sun set right after we were pronounced husband and wife. Minus the wedding crashers (seriously) everything went perfectly and exactly how we imagined it. We only wish we could have spent more time with everyone else, but anyone who’s had a wedding knows it’s often more fun to be a guest than to be the bride and groom. People have been raving about the food, the music, the venue, the beauty of the ceremony–and we’re very happy for it. People literally flew from all over the world to be with us for this weekend and it meant so much to us that people took the time, energy, and money to be with us.
But there’s three things Hugh and I are truly pleased about: first, that people seemed to truly appreciate the hard work we put into the wedding. We spent almost every single day of the past year planning every aspect of the wedding. It makes me so happy when grown men tell me they cried tears of happiness.
Secondly, we were so happy that so many people enjoyed New York City. I loved reading the facebook status messages of friends who were running all over the city, eating great food, and having fun. We only wish we could have been with everyone running around and having fun.
Finally, we love that so many people met one another and have befriended one another. We choose our friends very carefully, and it was a very small intimate wedding with only our closest friends and family. It makes me so happy to see my friends becoming friends with one another.
Thank you all to everyone who helped us–our families, our wonderful bridal party who did so much for us, and our guests who flew over from everywhere just to be with us.
