So, yes. I had to have eight of my closest with me that day, and to be honest I really wanted a couple more. And mostly I just wanted them around ALL THE TIME. Not that we had to have a special excuse, but being a bridesmaid DOES give you a very special excuse should it be necessary. Also, they were REALLY GOOD at the reading and decorating.
There are some good web recounts of the wedding from awesome friends: here, here, here, here, and here (this one made me cry!).
OK, you are going to get this wedding business for 2-3 more days from me as I work it out of my system, then we are off to Chicago for a long weekend and THEREAFTER things return to some semblance of Ashbloem-ness on this blog. I'm not even sure what that is anymore, but I think four days of biking on Lake Michigan, visiting the Field, having drinks with Jenny, and not being at a computer will help me figure it out.
