Mimi’s wedding

December 02nd, 2003 | Category: Play

Finally my entry for Mimi and Scotts wedding.

The church that they got married at was awesome. It was an old stone church out in Lapeer (I think). It was a really cool place.

The wedding was at 2:00pm on Saturday November 29th. I left the house at 12:45. I had to stop for gas, and I wanted to make sure I gave myself enough time to get up there. Kelly had left the house at 9:30am to pick up Meems and take her to get her nails done, and her hair did. So she was hanging out with Meems all day. I stopped for gas, and ended up getting to the church around 1:30. Way earlier than I’d expected, but no big deal.

Typical catholic wedding. Mimi looked fantastic! And Scott cleaned up really well for a hillbilly. :P J/K bro. The ceremony lasted about an hour. The one thing I thought was really cool was when the priest gave Jenny and Scott a gift at the end of the ceremony. It was a picture for them to hang at their house. The coolest part was that on the back of the picture was their marriage liscence. The priest said that it has all the important information on it except one thing. He then pointed at the guests. He said that the border around the liscence was for all the guests to sign, and that it was Johns (Scotts brother and best man) job to make sure everyone signed it. I just thought that was really cool.

The reception was at Adison Oaks Park. The only problem was the reception didn’t start untill 7:00pm. For the interum time, Kellys uncle aquired a senior citizen center for everyone to hang out at. There was food, and tables set up. Pretty good idea seeing how most everyone lives about an hour away.

I, on the other hand, did not get to hang out. Kelly ended up driving with me instead of the limo due to spacial restrictions. Heres how it went:
We left the Church around 3:30, after pictures.
Arrived at Adison Oaks for more pictures around 4:00
Left Adison Oaks around 6:30 to go to senior center
Arrived at senior center around 6:45, ate a bread roll.
Left senior center to go BACK to Adison Oaks for the reception. Arrived at 7:15.

Keep in mind that the route between the church/senior center and Adison Oaks is a collection of dirt roads. With the shitty weather on Friday, and the nice weather on Saturday, they ended up being a collection of mud pits.

The reception was fun. I took a lot of pictures, and got some really good ones. We hung out till about 11:00 abd got home around midnight.

Good times, good couple, good wedding. Have fun in Australia guys! Get me a boomerang!
