Our Wedding:
Our save-the-date
Invitation
My decision to change my last name to Gary's was my wedding day gift to him...he is reading about it in this note I sent over...
Our venue has a billiards room on the third floor...so, we tested our skills before the ceremony
Our program
The ketubah that Gary's mom made for us
We incorporated the ketubah signing into the begining of our ceremony
A friend signing it as a witness
Gary thanking another friend for signing as the other witness
We asked our guests to greet eachother with a sign of peace (a Christian tradition)
Instead of having the officiant read us the seven Jewish blessings, we asked two friends to take turns reading them to us
Our "guest book"
Our first dance was a cha-cha to Michael Buble's "Save the Last Dance"
The Hora!
Michael Jackson's "Thriller" was a dance floor favorite
This is the end of "Rock Lobster"...down, down, down..
