I can honestly say I’ve never known two people that needed to be married more than these two. I was honored to be a part of something so beautiful. Oh yeah, and the cake was incredible. 😉 ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by av8rmike \* > \*\*Congratulations! I’m going to need a scorecard to keep track of everyone! \*\* Just as a note, Bryan and I knew each other long before either one of us were on the boards. Still, we’re rather proud to be another ‘Doper Couple’. Bryan actually didn’t join the boards until after the first dopefest I dragged him to. 🙂 ---

Bryan also makes an excellent LA tour guide, and is an all around swell guy! Lovely pictures, Java! You looked gorgeous, you didn’t exagerate a bit. And Bryan’s suit was very pretty, too. I see the aforementioned hottie chef managed to avoid the cameras again. Oh well. 🙂 ---

Oh well. 🙂 \*\* She WAS in one of my photos, but to be honest, it wasn’t a very good picture (no fault of the picture-ee; I blame myself!), so I didn’t post it. 🙂 The wedding was a wonderful time, and I’m so glad Java and Bryan invited me. All the food, and the cake, were fantastic. The rain decided to stop for the ceremony itself. A good time was had by all! When’s the next one? ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Anamorphic \* > \*\* When’s the next one? \*\* I tell you now, mister… the amount of work, stress, and cleanup I put into this wedding, I sure as hell won’t be doing THAT again anytime soon. 😃 But, I do have a ridiculous amount of booze left over. You might have to come over and help me ‘put it away’. **Coldie** , I do know that there’s a picture of your girlfriend that I took while she was cooking the day before. I’ll see if it turns out before I get it scanned and shown to the world. ---

Congrats guys! The party was excellent. Great food, great jokes, and great conversation. (Also, there was no fist fights. Always a good sign of a party.) Thanks! Congrats! pat ---

I don’t know, Pat. I always thought that the fist fights were supposed to _make_ the party. 😃 ---

Oh, is the party over? Yeesh, where have I been??? A quick recap, from the bridesmaid’s perspective: **Java** was gracious and beautiful, (and worked her ass off) **Bryan** was as endearing as ever, (and also worked very hard) **Heloise** was adorable, and a dervish in the kitchen, too **CelticCowboy** put up lights and canopies, was the brides_maid_’s handler, and was also pretty adorable. **My mom** contributed some beautiful flowers, of which I am still very proud. The actual party went by in a whirlwind for me (or maybe that was just the floor spinning … whose idea was it to put all that wine out where de-stressing wedding party members could get to it, anyway? 😉 ), but I was pleased and honored to be a part of it all … Many blessing to the new Mr. & Mrs. !!! ---
