Oh what fun! It really makes me thnk of my friend’s wedding, two years ago. It was so beautiful, filled with so many good memories! i miss her so much–and everyone else. I’m dying to visit. They had the reception in a colonial ballroom. It was so beautiful. Reminded me a bit of the ballroom in Beauty and the Beast, color wise. What a day. I was just sad that I didn’t get the chance to say goodbye before she got in the car! I was so sad–I was going back home in a few days. Haven’t been able to visit since. Sniff.

You know, the best memories are the simple ones, with friends and family. You don’t forget them.

In reply to Alex. Haha yes, it was around the time of the Olympics and we were re-enacting the Fab 5 gymnast moves. When the cop came I told him "first of all I don't think you're a cop right? and second we're just really excited for America and you can't even be mad about that.." And as for the chipotle, I had 2 burrito bowls! lol I get it all of once a year so I needed to really dig in

Love that you had the police called on just the three of you — LOL. And a Chipotle catered rehearsal dinner? YES PLEASE.

In reply to Justine. I am planning to go to one in the winter and will definitely do a post about it! They go on for 5 days, costs loads of money... sometimes all the family's money, and there is crazy cool jewelry and sometimes an elephant or horse.

In reply to Laura. It's so great especially when you've been away because as a bonus you get to see a bunch of your friends at the wedding!

Aww, what a great story! And that’s awesome you were actually able to go home for the wedding. I love how you explain American wedding customs to non-American readers. Out of curiosity, what are weddings like in India?

I love weddings of friends. Had one the week I got back from Africa and have another in a week. Love catching up with everyone and basically having a big party

Great photos! One of my closest friends from college has just gotten engaged and your post has me so excited to head back to the US next year to watch them get married! Weddings are always such happy times!
