The wedding was...amazing. For those of you who didn't already know, it was a traditional Scottish wedding complete with Highland Dress (men in kilts are hot). I can honestly say that I've never witnessed a more beautiful wedding. Some photos will be coming soon, but for the most part the camera stayed away. I wanted to just enjoy time with Haley and not have to worry about capturing everything on camera. I was more involved in this wedding than any other that I've been in and now can say that the title of "Maid of Honor" is slightly stressful. But I wouldn't have wanted to be in any other spot. Haley had some family fly in from Scotland and I had the honor of being able to spend some time with them over the weekend and relish in their stories and accents. We also had the chance to steal away and hike through Hitchcock Woods. Aside from some friction with the Matron of Honor (or as I like to call it, Slapfest 2005 .:or:. Battle of the Bridesmaids), the weekend was relatively drama free. The ceremony took place at St. Thaddeus Episcopal Church and the reception followed at The Rye Patch. Just imagine bagpipes, lots of kilts (men in kilts are hot), a huge wedding gown, tears, imported flowers and herbs, laughter, pretty ladies in red dresses (that would be the bridesmaids), mouth-watering food, and dancing underneath the stars to the likes of Frank Sinatra and Eric Clapton. It was a fairytale wedding. And if you know Haley and Simon you know that a fairytale wedding is the only one that would suit them.

Yay for friends getting married and for men in kilts (men in kilts are hot).
