Moments from our wedding

Rehearsal/pre-wedding:

• Fun bachlorette party: delicious food, AB knowledge game, who's best at drawing AB ...with plate on their head, escape room with the wedding party. Family and friends getting together to make the center pieces and boutineers.
• So many ppl helping out with making the center pieces and boutineers (Megan, KP, family)
• 1st time me doing french manicure for KP
• AB (groom) struggling with exchange of bride with father of the bride. "Think football!"
• AB got boo'ed for peck on the cheek and then people surprised at intense first kiss.
• Accidentally always looking at the pastor during ring exchange.
• Venue coordinator changed last minute due to family emergency, but we reviewed details with club manager before rehearsal
• Last minute change in procession with surprisingly insistent pastor
• Eating delicious meal at Feng's Kitchin for rehearsal dinner.
• Ordering way too much food at Classic Kitchen for wedding breakfast

Wedding:

• Trying out a lot of different types of photos with photographer.
• Being worried when some people didn't show up at designated time, but it all turned out ok.
• Awesome maids of honor: there to give us food, touch ups, finding random items, fixing dress, like body guards.  And family who were there early to help with unloading and decorations.
• Decoration team. Awesome.
• RW looking confused regarding what to do with the tulle.
• Neal helping with tying ties and putting on boutineers.
• Confidence that things will go okay: hearing music when we were taking pictures prior to ceremony. Also when AB put on his suit and found the thank you speech in his pocket - that we had planned it well. Also when WK said the venue was really nice before the ceremony.
• Moment of sadness/tearing up when I started walking down the aisle, but dad made a joke.
• AB fearful that I ran away after professional paused.
• First time after walking down aisle and realizing how many people there are and recognizing people.
• Seeing so many diff people from diff parts of my life at the same time and place.
• Tear up when AB said his vow.
• Wedding message from pastor Tow: commitment, complement, companionship.
• Beautiful song from Ken, Steven, Karen.
• Forgot the prayer after sand ceremony, AB had to remind me.
• Surprise at seeing GA family after ceremony when they said they wouldn't make it (and their lovely adorable daughter!)
• Having trouble getting family together for pictures. "Where is Neal!?"
• Delicious appetizers: ahi tuna, mushroom purse, lobster empanadas with white wine sauce.
• MS said he ate like 7 empanadas.
• Riding on the golf cart, everyone on golf course being nice and saying congrats even when delaying their rounds
• Small group being loud when we went to take pictures
• Really good stuffed balsamic chicken, flat iron steak with tobacco onions, and pesto crusted salmon.
• AB's times of uncertainty: started first look late (didn't know if makeup was close to being done or would be very late), backlog at club entrance before ceremony (not sure whether to start with 60% there, or delay further), dress bustle broke (not sure if would delay dinner, activities, dress quality), hair appearance in pictures
• Fun shoe game where bride and groom answer series of questions with "bride" or "groom" by raising corresponding shoe: my Washu friends surprised AB has worse sense of direction, his friends surprised I'm more frugal. So many people thought that was the best game ever and had never seen that game before. Having the same answers. Yi apologizes first. Who is more thrifty, adventurous, better driver, better cook and what the other person cook best (egg and tomato vs spaghetti)...
• People asking about honeymoon, whether AB's place had furniture now (haha).
• Fun 2 hours after scheduled program: getting to see and talk to people.
• Having lots of people wanting to take your picture like you are famous.
• Feeling nice that people appreciated how nice the venue was taking into account all the effort we made to figure out if people all fit.
• Taking pics at wine cellar, photographer Clint's jokes: what is a pirates favorite letter?
• Being able to take some of the pictures outside and inside. How we had awesome weather!
• Having issues with the bustle and MLC came to the rescue with needle and thread.
• Amazing photo booth that was better than professional quality. And getting to see the pictures.
• Wish I could have told more people that the ceremony flowers, boutineers, centerpieces, bouquets, were done by friends and family.
• Speeches: Darrin and sports analogy, reference to being homeless. Maids of h: funny tag team about past (301, scatterbrain, xmas gift); and tearing up. Tearing up during dad's speech about meaning of name and finding a worthy person after so many miles. Parents tag team and Alan saving up for college at 5, clock, maps.
• AB's father shocked that he could dance (kind of).
• Some people looking different than what we thought when we finally met them. 
• Not getting to eat an egg tart - asked brother to keep one for me and he forgot.
• People commenting on how sweet the fruit was - but didn't get to eat any. :(
• People so complementary of how well the wedding went.
• Everyone helping to clean up.
• Staff took one of our flowers and took a selfie to send to his wife in Japan.
• Us being the last 2 to leave.
