the big day

The wedding was on July 6. It was so lovely. The ceremony was in both English and German. I was surprised by how easily all the prayers came back to me. I haven't been a regular church goer since I was about 15. I don't even remember what was said at my own wedding. But as the mass went on I found myself following along with such ease. It's amazing to realize just how brainwashed with religion we are as we grow up. Who would have thought that you would so easily remember church things all those years later? Anyway, the wedding was lovely, the bride was beautiful and the reception was at a winery. It looked like something from the movies. Almost unbelievable. I didn't get the full effect I'm sure because there were so many other people around but it was still pretty impressive. The vegetables served with the steak later that night were the best I've ever eaten.
