Let's give a "Rebel Yell" for a "White Wedding!"
Well, I've finally moved back to good ol' North Dakota. I'm
unpacked, I've started working, and I've already been accepted to a
film school. Whoa, don't get too excited. It's just a
community college that happens to have an open door policy (that means
anyone who applies gets accepted). Anywho, I thought it was about
time I wrote my wedding blog. And by "my wedding" I mean my best
friends wedding in "my blog." Where to start? Back in 2000
Brian was going to school in Eau Claire and he met this
lovely...///////////////////////////////qqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqq.
Oh, sorry. I fell asleep already. Why don't I just start
with the bachelor party that I was in charge of.
As you can see out the garage door, it was a lovely day for golf...once
it stopped raining...3 hours after we finished playing golf. Damn
you rain! Anyway, with the help of beer, meat, and the promise of
a lovely Texas Hold 'Em poker tournament I'd say this party was pretty
sweet. Hell, it's most likely what I'll do for my bachelor
party...if I ever get married that is.
P.S. I would just like to point out how sexy Brian looks smoking
that stogie Smokey Style. Oh yeah!
Unlucky in love, but lucky in cards. Booya! I's gots my $5
back, biaches. Too bad I look like I'm 12 in my golf hat.
Since it was too rainy to take any golf pictures. Oh yeah, and I
was golfing! These are pretty much the only pictures I personally
took at the party. I was far too busy making sure everything was
going smoothly and that I always had a beer in my hand and a stogie in
my mouth.
About a month later the week of the wedding finally came. I went
up to the Cities to stay with Brian for a few days before the wedding
in case he needed anything, like calling the DJ for last minute song
requests, picking up anything, keeping him sane, or...
...polishing shoes! I was pretty excited. It was my first time, so I tried to be gentle.
By the way, in case you haven't gone shopping in 6 months, Star Wars is
everywhere! Episode III opened that Thursday, and you better
believe we were there. To help prepare for the intense final
chapter of this epic saga, Brian had purchased all of his snacks with
Star Wars pictures and toys on them. Here's us dueling to the
death with our very own Saber Spoons from General Mills cereal.
In the end we both won because we both got Saber Spoons and there the
coolest spoons in the entire galaxy.
With all the hype about Aniken's dramatic transformation into Darth
Vader, I couldn't help but ponder some dramatic transformations of
my own. Since the wedding was going to be on Saturday, I thought
it'd be a good idea to finally shave my gotee and be smooth and clean
shaven for all those lovely photo ops.
Sadly, this is about as sexy as I've gotten in the past two years.
Or was it. Great God in heaven! Even I look huge in this
picture. Apparently the handlebar mustache can make even the
scrawniest of white guys bonefied badasses! Mmmmm, the white
trash is strong in this one.
Ummm....gross.
Officer.
"Excuse me sir, in Episode III, how did Hayden Christienson's acting make you feel?"
"Angry."
Like little Ani to Darth Vader, and Darth Vader back to Luke's father,
my transformation was complete...that is if my understanding of the
ancient arts of placement using the proven power of FENG SHUI were
correct.
Friday night or, Wedding Eve, was the groom's dinner at Buca D'Beppos,
or something Italian like that. It means Joe's basement. It
also means 80 pounds of food because good Lord were those plates heavy!
Here's some of the friends and fam at table one...
...and some more at table 2.
Here's most of the wedding party excluding the most important people of course.
The bride, groom and best man, booya!
Oh here they are thanking everyone for coming and supporting them and...
...getting a strawberry cake with a camping theme! Hella cool!
"Less pictures, more cake!"
"But, Brian, how can you eat cake after all that food we've
already ea...okay I'll have another piece."
"Mmmmmm, camping cake."
Here's the Bridesmaids opening their lovely braclets from the bride and groom.
I didn't get a picture of the groomsmen's present because I was too
busy opening it. Us men got a very nice poker chip set, and don't
worry Brian got one as a wedding gift so he wouldn't be left out of his
own group.
Here's the two cutest flower girls you'll ever see in your entire
life opening their necklaces to wear at the wedding.
Seriously look how adorable they are! Even the groom wasn't too
busy for these cuties.
Here's Kat and her family during photo number 876 for the day,
aproximately.
Here's Brian's sister Stacy with her husband Eric and child-to-be,
Ethan or Elise.
And here is Mr. and Mrs. Brian Gausman. Wedding bells were
certainly ringing.
Now it's off to the reception:
After a very, very nice toast by Kat's father, Kari told of how
her in Kat met at Sunday school. Not in Sunday school, but in
the office where they both got sent for misbehaving in Sunday
school. Oh yeah, and Kat's mom was the one who sent Kari to
the office. Nice.
I decided to talk about how much Mexico sucks, or something like
that. Anyway, that's where they were going for their honeymoon,
and I was just jealous really.
Toasts are over! Now it's time to party!
Seriously, this shit is free y'all! Drink up!
The Gausman's first dance to Josh Groben. Not the Josh
Groben song, the other one, that means more.
Kat and her dad danced to Celine Dion's Because You Loved Me.
Brian and his mom danced to Garth Brook's Your Song.
And we all pretty much danced to Billy Jean. But no one danced
to The Electric Slide, Bunny Hop, or, The Chicken Dance...because
they were vetoed!
Now that the wedding and celebration is all over it's time to
recognize the true meaning of marriage:
Presents, yay!
"Mmmmmm, Kitchen Aid." Brian can already imagine all the tasty
food he can make with this bad boy.
And all the dishes he can clean afterwards with his new soap and towels.
"Hey, Brian. There's a dog in this picture. Can we get a dog?"
"Hey, Kat. There's a canoe in this picture. Can we get a canoe?"
"Can't we get both?"
And so they were married. And they lived happily ever after.
