Brynn's wedded bliss recap

Most of ya'll know how amazing Brynn and John's wedding festivities were (either you were there or you have heard me describe it in painstaking detail) but here's a recap in 10 easy bullet points anyhow:

-Brynn's dress was pulled from the costume storage at Annex theater and crafted into a stunning number by Mairi.



-"Groom, groom, where is the groom"?, "Bride, bride, where is my bride"? and "We want a wedding! When do we want it? Now!" chanted in unison by 150 people parading to Volunteer park.







-A 20 act cabaret performance with Brynn and John doing the MC work. The touching/creepy/hysterical mask number. Didi and I finishing up the night and barely remembering being on stage due to the many glasses of wine/excitement/nerves. Tin whistles.







-A 3-tiered sushi wedding cake (and a traditional one).





-A glorious and glowing Brynn with one HOT bouffant.



-The entire congregation singing "Daisy, Daisy" in a round (we had learned it the night before at the cabaret of course!) ending with a bicycle built for two zooming into the crowd and whisking away the married couple.



-Seeing friends from ye' old alma mater that I haven't seen in years and getting to know some new ones.



-Spending quality time with Brynn and all her girls pre-ceremony and shedding a few wee tears.

-Random music breakouts, blue-grass banding, and impromtu stage numbers (including the Little Mermaid). Singing "Freedom" by George Michael in 3-part harmony with John and Didi.





-Witnessing the love that is Brynn and John.



And all the people that love them.
