I'm happy to announce that J.Lo and Marc Anthony's wedding went off without a hitch yesterday. Err, I mean, Mike and Holly's wedding...

So, after about eight years of dating, Mike and Holly finally tied the knot! The wedding and reception took place in a beautiful garden at the Strong Todd house, right near the George Eastman house. It was a very intimate and lovely ceremony. Pat and I had the honor of reading and the ceremony, which was a little scary, but I think we pulled it off alright. I'm not sure I'll ever get asked to do another reading ever again, that wasn't really what I was going for anyway.

The cocktail hour followed with champagne, caviar, raw oysters, and seared tuna, to name a few. For dinner, they had each course paired with a wine, which we thought was great. I'm not sure I can think of any more positive adjectives to describe this wedding, unless I get out a thesaurus, so I think I'll stop describing all of the specific foods and drinks and just said it was a terrific, beautiful day and I wouldn't expect anything less, for and from, Mike and Holly.

We met some really great (seriously, can someone find me a thesaurus??) people and got to know some of their other friends and family so much better. We just had the best time!

We have a big day ahead of us. In a couple hours, we're headed over to Mike's dad's house for the day-after-the-wedding event. Later, we're planning to get together with our friends Sean and Rachel, who we haven't seen in forever. Finally, we're going to end the weekend with the Soprano's finale. Not too shabby.
