Post-Mortem

The wedding went BEAUTIFULLY! Check out Facebook for some choice early shots... I'll try and get a Flickr or Shutterfly account in the near future.

Though the ice cream didn't happen, we did have a lovely dinner last night with Chris's family and had a great time. It was wonderful to meet Melissa and her precocious kids and spend some time together!

We're so thankful to everyone who made the trip out and spent the day with us. We hope everyone had as much fun as we did.

Quick Post-Rehearsal Ice Cream?

Anyone family members who will be in town interested in getting ice cream with us after the Rehearsal Dinner?

I'm thinking specifically of Chris's fam, particularly those of you I haven't met! Since the Rehearsal is at my grandparent's apartment, we can only invite those people actually involved in the minutiae of the ceremony. But I'd love to meet everyone and swap quick greetings before the wedding!

We were thinking of finding a place in downtown Manhattan (maybe Little Italy?) for gelato at 8:30ish. It would probably be quick-- 30 mins or an hour-- so I could get beauty sleep.

Who's in?

Update

So, I feel like I haven't been in touch as much as I've meant to be. Apologies to anyone!

A few quick updates:

We figured out sheet cake. It's coming from a local-ish bakery instead of Costco. We think a friend is going to be able to pick it, and our fancy mini cake, up.

Chris is gonna borrow mom's car to get beer and wine.

We've nearly finished writing the ceremony and going through our iPod playlist (which is easy, thanks to the "Born Bad" comp and some other rockabilly comps that Emily gave us).

All I'm really nervous about now is:
- weather
- hair
- finding enough time for photos
- being heard-- and not being embarrassed-- during the ceremony

These are all relative intangibles, so I need to relaaaax.
