I finally have time to sit down and rehash the wedding day! And all i can say was "I had the time of my Life". Literally and I'm not just saying that because that was the theme of the evening, which I might add a lot of people came up to me and commented on how awesome that idea was. toot toot my horn. ha ha ha.
So the ceremony wasn't what I expected or liked. Our original priest backed out three months before our day and got his friend to replace him who is a deacon. I personally don't think the Deacon knew what he was doing. Anyways, I was completely calm cool and collected. Dad and I talked all the way down the aisle. Then even Phil and I were shootin' the shit at the alter. ha ha ha. Thanks Jack for doing that amazing reading. You rocked it! Then after the mass (which was very short) Phil and I headed outside to greet our guests. Our guests included 25 little kids from my class (and a few from the other class). They all ran up to me and hugged the daylights out of me. I have a pic from the photographer (well he has it but i saw it) of the girls around me and I'm like Cinderella and they are my mice. So cute. Everyone commented on the love they have for me and the love I have for them. It was a great idea for them to come!!! so after a couple pictures of the family and group, we headed to spencer smith park for more pictures. They turned our beautiful. My photographer displayed them at the reception on his laptop, great touch Aaron! I must give a huge shout out to my photographer and his wife. They ROCKED! I totally will be giving family and friends his name and number when they get married. I recommened him highly.
So from there we went to the reception. I didn't know we started the recieving line at 5 (the cocktail hour) and the guests go in the room to have the cocktails. So during the recieving line, I look over and there are two guests who were invited who didn't RSVP at all. But guess what, it was no problem at all with the Burlington Convention Centre. They didn't panic, they accomodated. Again, I will highly recommend the BCC to anyone getting married in Burlington. They did everything. All I had to do was show up friday and give them my stuff and they took it from there. That is why I was so relaxed the day before and the day of. I knew I was in very good hands.
So the recieving line ended and the announcing began. PHil and I did our first dance, which I belted out singing to "She's Like the Wind". Then we listened to all my favourite top 40 boyband songs throughout dinner. woo hoo!!! I sang and ate the whole dinner. If I could have danced trust me i would have. After dinner my dad and I danced to "Changes" by Kelly and Ozzy Osbourne, again I sang through the whole song. Again a lot of people came up to me and said "great song". Thank you!! For those who know me (Jack) knows I have to be different and unique in the things I do, I have always had different hair cuts, or different everything to stay out of the norm. So for me to choose a song like that and one no one really knows, is soooo me. And I love love love Jack's blog about our wedding. Thanks hunny, I love you!
So then I danced, drank, danced and drank. I danced to every single song and only left the dance floor to take a shot of Vodka. I really really really had a great time! I want to do it again. Not because I would change a damn thing, but so i can keep dancing to the great music!! Again, I will be recommending my DJ to everyone in this world. He rocked!!!! It's a shame (phil brought to my attention), that you talk and meet these people for a whole year, you get to know them and then the day comes, then you never talk to them again. I will truely miss our vendors! The Burlington Convention Centre did an amazing job!! i will miss the coordinators extremely!
Well I have to write about the honeymoon tomorrow or another day because we are heading out to find my mom a birthday gift! Again, to all those who came and were involved, thank you so much for coming and being a part of our special day. It is truely one I am going to remember for the rest of my life and I love hearing about the day from other people's point of view!!! and the things I missed because I was on the dance floor!! Love you guys!
