For any of you who didn't know, Amanda and I went to Wichta for our friend Preethi's wedding. Preethi was Amanda's old roommate, and even though we were not in the wedding party, we were invited to the rehersal dinner. So we both took a half day and drove the 3 hours to Wichita. But since we arrived early I read while Amanda played Gameboy.
The rehersal went well, though the priest was very stern to the point of being rude. After the rehersal was done, we went to "Pizza Villa" and got to know everyone a little better. After which we checked into the Hyatt and got ready for tomorrow. By the way, I am not going to be staying in a Hyatt ever again...
Anyway, we woke up at 8 because we agreed to help setup the banquet hall where the reception was being help. We workd from 10 to about 1, then we took showers changed and went to the wedding (which was at 2).
The wedding was nice; and for a catholic wedding, went very fast. After the wedding the photographer took 45 minutes to take MOST of the pictures... Also, after the wedding I believe the AC was turned off because it became warm very quickly.
When we got to the banquet hall I spent a lot of time trying to find an elevator that works because one of Brian's grandfathers was physically unable to walk up stairs. Beyond that was just a good time. We got a chance to catch up with some old friends from college that we had not seen in awhile. At one point the DJ asked if anyone had a song with the word "love" in the title. Kevin (not me) raised his hand and said "Love in an Elevator" by Areosmith. Well, he had to sing a verse before we could go up to get dinner. Needless to say we got a good laugh out of his Steven Tyler impression and were the first ones in line for dinner, which was excellent.
There was an open bar, and I drank a lot, but never even got so much as a buzz. It was also hot in the banquet hall because one of the bartenders accidentally turned the AC off. So all the dancing and hot indian food really just made things worse. Though I still had a lot of fun.
