On Labor Day, AKA the day of all days for people to be born and to be married, I had the privilege of attending and being a part of one of my great friends from high school's wedding and had the best (and warm!) time! It was a great venue, great friends and family, and it was nice to see 2 people who seem like they would be totally different (think dark, tattooed, and pierced vs. tall and fair) from the outside come together so perfectly on a night such as this.
Props to someone else who also cheated during the "no cell phone" ceremony, and to Mama Davoodi for posting this beautiful moment!
What my awesome (can you just tell the awesome quality?!) cell phone allowed me to capture. BUT-golden glow everywhere!
The Birthday Boy wanted to pose with the greeter..no biggie.
<3
I didn't take nearly as many pictures as I had hoped, partly because I have an iPhone and that only gets you so far, but I was also glad to have some sort of 'purpose' and helping Southern Charm DFW AKA Wonder Woman Devon make sure everything was set up and going smoothly throughout. Everything tasted yummy, the drinks down smooth, and the DJ definitely kept the party going. My favorite part perhaps was probably right at the end of the ceremony when Jason and Shohreh were walking back down the aisle and went up to do their little thumb prints on the guest tree and the sun was going down perfectly behind the trees and casting this warm golden glow on them. I snuck a quick snap even though no cell phones were allowed (hehe). That or when the bride and her father busted out traditional Persian dancing during their father/daughter dance. Or when the cake lady arrived. Maybe I just loved it all?! Can you get married again? ;)
Jason and Shohreh-You guys are perfect for each other and I loved seeing your big day come together as it did. I wish you both nothing but the best and excited that you now get to enjoy married life as we all are! When did we all get old enough to get married?! The long hours of driving and cutting paper flowers and setting silverware out all day were worth the sweat! Happy 6th day of marriage you guys-Cheers to the next 6+!!
I now present a timeline:
Got a little glimpse of the life of a wedding coordinator..eek! Yes, that is a platter of Jimmy Johns sandwiches in my lap, which I thoroughly enjoyed multiple times during night ;)
Welcome!

Weddings? I love weddings, drinks all around!
Getting the party started!
I mean, look at their faces! <3

*Insert other totally awesome picture of the dessert table that was assembled and then demolished probably within a span of 8 minutes*
*Insert picture of totally awesome bubble exit*
And then, it was back to Dallas. The land of the traffic. And home of the construction.
Alright friends, now who's getting married next? I want more cake ;) and love, and laughter, and heck-why not a happily every after to top it all off!
