we are back from charleston. yesterday we had a wonderful day celebrating the wedding of chris & meredith. in their casual unorthodox style the ceremony was in the parking lot of the boathouse restaurant with the reception in the restaurant. it was hot.. had i thought better i would have worn a white robe.
for my first wedding, people said i did a good job, so that is encouraging (minus the face i made in the picture). a few slip ups with some longer liturgy parts, but it was very basic and i threw out my notes in giving the homily. not sure if that was good or bad, but it was mostly to what i wrote and from the heart.
the reception was a ton of fun and a lot of laughs. we capped it off with all the men folk taking a dip into the bay, suits and all.
the rest of the week was capped with a lot of hanging out, playing golf, telling stories, laughing with one another and doing the little odds and ends to make this a celebratory time for chris and meredith.
i think i will reflect on the weekend more at a later time. till then check out some of the scenes.
