Duane and Mary's Wedding!

It all started when my friend Leticia's little brother Duane was planning his wedding to his beautiful fiance Mary. Duane and Mary needed someone to videotape their wedding. Teesh remembered that Pancho had videotaped her sister Amber's wedding to Tony, so she persuaded them to let Pancho have another chance at it. So, in exchange for an invite to their beautiful wedding and nights stay at the Embassy suites, we were the official video tapers!

We had a blast staying at the hotel, dancing, partying (and videotaping of course!) with the whole Konyn clan!

Lucy has become such a great swimmer this summer
I took her to some lessons and now she is swimming across the pool with her head under the water and even diving for toys with her brothers. She has no fear now!

What a cute picture!

The cake

I thought it was so simple and beautiful

Me, Pancho, Chad and Teesh

longtime friends!

I LOVED their program.

They put it on a paint stick that they had painted to match the program.

It could also be used as a fan during the wedding!

The ice sculpture.

They actually served drinks off of this thing!

Those are cherries and plums frozen in the bottom.

This is a terrible picture . . .

but they had an Aeriel acrobat come and do a show for us while we were eating dinner.

I had never seen this at a wedding before, it was really cool!

I wanted to be a Konyn sister!

So later in the evening, after the ice sculpture had melted a little bit, it was used for something else . . . shooters!

This is the hilarious maid of honor taking a shot!

Now its the Brides turn . . . Go Mary!!!

Here is her reaction after a successful shot!

So funny!

Once again, the cute couple.

Thank You Duane and Mary for including us in your perfect day!
