so i was done with livejournal, but my brother got married, so i think that deserves an entry...
so it was fantastic. i woke up at like 9ish and went with kate (my brother's fiancee, his name is ryan) to go get our hair and makeup done. that took forever, and then we went to the hotel where her reception was, and her other two bridesmaids, her mom, her stepmom, my mom, and my aunt, who was the photographer, met us there, and we chilled for a while and drank champange, fantastic. then we all got our dresses on, and the flowers got delivered, and then the limo came to take us to the chapel. the ceremony, it was FANTASTIC, oh man, i cried, they're ADORABLE. i can't even describe it, they're the best looking couple i've ever seen in my lifeeee. anyway. after the ceremony, we took pictures outside for an hour, ridiculous, but necessary. i drove with my uncle back to the hotel for the reception. right when we got there, we saw the limo with ryan and kate in it, and they called me and my cousin alanna over and we chilled with them in the limo for a bit, and had more champagne. then we went down to a little private room for food, yum, and even more champagne, ha. we went outside and took a bunch of pictures, i really really hate them now. then we went down to the reception room, and announced ryan and kate, and had our champange toast, haha yes way too much champagne already. then they brought in supper. holy god, i have never had such amazinggg food in my entire life, it was delicious, i coudl ahve lived on it. they did their first dance and the father daughter dance, and the mother son dance, then they cut the cake, haha, i love that. the cake was fantastically fantastic too, and then they had everyone start dancing. my aunt (she's like 30 and fantastic, i love her) decided she was my date, so we danced a lot, thats what champange does to you, we drank it from the bottle too, i'm amazed my mom didn't kill me. after a looooong night of dancing and laughing and general fun, at around 11:30, kate and ryan retreated to their honeymoon suite, and like 2 seconds later, everyone went to their hotel rooms, but my family is crazy and wasn't ready to give up the party, so everyone except me went down to the bar, and i stayed in my room and watched saturday night live. everyone came back in at like 2, and we finally went to sleep at around 3. the next morning, we woke up at around 9:30, and all went down to the hotel's brunch, my family, kate's family, and the newlyweds themselves. then me and my brother, the one who did not get married, went on a secret mission to their car to write "JUST MARRIED" with the soap that we stole from our hotel rooms, and finally, we all went home, because the party was over. it was amazing and fantastic and wonderful, and now it is time for the pictures:
