The wedding was at Independence Grove in Libertyville, IL. We headed out early Saturday morning so that we would make it on time. Being the super anal person that I am, I had a lot of anxiety about getting there on time. I've been late to weddings before and it's super embarrassing! I think it's all the construction that really gets to me too. But somehow we made it there with 10 minutes to spare! I'd like to think it had something to do with the amazing driving skills on my part. :)The ceremony was a full Catholic mass which I've participated in a few times now. And by participated, I mean follow along in the program and sat silently while everyone else goes up for the snack. I have to say that I don't mind mass because I am always so amazed that all the Catholic people know what to say and when to say it. Kind of reminds me of formal chapter at KKG.
Afte the ceremony we headed to the hotel to hang out for a little bit and then hop on the bus to the reception. Thanks to the Fijis, the bus ride felt like it was Grand Prix all over again! Independence Grove is absoultely beautiful! And we got to watch the sun set while we enjoyed delicious appetizers and the champagne kept flowing.
We headed into dinner to watch all the dances and speeches (which were fabulous!). Then it was time to hit the dance floor ourselves which I didn't really leave for the rest of the night! I have to say that I do enjoy dancing at weddings a lot! And they even played the Cupid Shuffle! You would think that after two years, I would get sick of that song but I haven't yet!
Sunday we drove back to Indy and I had dinner with my parents as the Sunday routine goes. And that was it! No wedding this upcoming weekend but I'm sure there will be some fun happening! :)
