tony and erin's wedding

Mommy and Daddy got a night out tonight.  Nancy and John were watching Bennett while we got to enjoy the evening at Tony and Erin's wedding.  Daddy went earlier in the day since he had to get ready and pictures to take.   A sneak peak at the bride and groom before the wedding ceremony.


The Godfather, Scott, in action.  He was also part of the wedding party.


Not sure what this is a picture of here but I am pretty sure it's somewhere downtown Philadelphia and it's something important.


I met up with everyone at the church.  The ceremony was gorgeous.  I love that it was at such a historic place.  It made it super special.


No pictures were allowed during the ceremony so I did not take any because I play by the rules like that.  The cocktail hour and reception were right after the ceremony.  We made the mistake of eating too much at the cocktail hour.  There were so many great choices.  We had mini philly cheesesteaks, sesame chicken, bacon wrapped scallops, baguettes topped with brie and the list goes on.  It was all delicious.  

We had a very special present for Tony.  Almost seven years ago when him and Erin came to the wine tour the day before our wedding, he ate way too many Slim Jim's and hasn't eaten one since that day.


I wonder if he ate it.


The reception started out with the first dance.  It was very sweet.  I met Erin for the first time at my wedding.  Her and Tony just started dating.  It's really special that we now get to celebrate their wedding day.



The mother and son dance made me cry.  I pictured myself dancing with Bennett at some point in our futures and completely lost it.  I don't think the booze helped.  Tony's mom is such a special lady.  She raised Nick and Tony and Scott and Dave and Maxwell.  They would all come over to her house to hang after school.



The beautiful bride, Erin. 


We spent the rest of the night dancing.  I knew I would pay for that tomorrow but I didn't care.  The food, the music and the company were so great I stopped stressing and let the night go.  It flew by. Congratulations to Tony and Erin on their big day! Wishing you many years of joy and happiness and love. Now go make me some cousins for Bennett!
