Jenn and John's Wedding!

Well, we finally got Jenn married off! And the wedding was nothing short of beautiful, the groom was handsome, and the bride was stunning! Sadly, the weather didn't fully cooperate and the outside festivities had to be moved inside, but all was well, as the inside was lovely too! It was a busy couple days for me leading up to the event, but I know it was a busy couple months for John and Jenn. But, they get to fly off to Italy in just a few short days for their honeymoon.

Below are some picts of the event - although I think most of my blog readers were probably there.

The rehearsal dinner was at Atomic Billiards. It was a ton of fun and everyone seemed to enjoy challenging each other to pool and shuffleboard. Even the bride got in the action:



Here are some photos we had from the main event. These are just from my camera, so they aren't the best. Perhaps I will switch them out or add more when the real photos are available!






(mmmmmm, cupcakes!)

But, all this wedding business got me thinking about what it takes to have a successful, enduring relationship. Not necessarily "marriage", of course. But a long, happy relationship. Not that I proclaim to be an expert on the subject, but I am no novice either! So, I was thinking it might be fun to have you relationship experts out there send some advice to the newlyweds!

If I had to come up with 2 things that I feel are paramount in the building of a strong foundation, they would be:
Support and Compromise.

These may seem obvious, however I think sometimes it is quite a challenge to do them.

So, I invite you to add comments of your own about this - suggestions, advice, helpful tid-bits you have learned over the years, etc...

(Although, it may just be a ploy to get people to write comments..)
