EP's wedding


You know, the entire weekend that was EP's wedding was surreal. While it was an event we never expected (who would have guessed not only that EP would get married, but that he'd marry a sweet, beautiful, completely normal girl?!), much of the weekend was fairly predictable. I'm always amazed (and sort of impressed) at how easily we all revert back to our 21-year-old selves. Though, maybe it's not reverting at all. We just haven't grown up since college.

Anyway, these are my top 5 (in no particular order) moments from the weekend, along with some pictures. I'm assuming/demanding that others will offer their own recap/blogs/pictures/videos as well.

Moment #1: EP's Dancing

- On Sunday, EP and I were talking about his stellar dancing. It's something we've all seen time and time again. I mentioned that all of my pictures from previous UD weddings are about 70% EP. He always steals the show. But he pointed out that he didn't steal this show. It was HIS show. Still, let's take a quick trip through EP's dancing history:

DeFago wedding:
Garman wedding:
his own wedding:


Moment #2: EP living up to his nickname

Garman sent me a picture text when he got to Virginia Beach. It was a sign listing various rules, including the city's ordinance against foul language. The irony of EP living in an area that gives tickets for explicit language was not lost. From barging into Mahi Mah's dining room to tell us "assholes to get [our] asses into the reception because [he] was sweating his balls off in an office" to threatening to "kill the fucking DJ for not getting the correct version of "Crazy Love"," I couldn't tell if EP's foul language has increased, or I've just missed having it in my daily life. Either way, it was music to my ears.

Moment #3: Fr. laying the smackdown on the photog

Not many priests can seamlessly weave the berating of someone doing their job between the gospel and the homily. Oh wait....it wasn't seamless....it created the most awkward moment EVER!

Moment #4: Brennan comes out

Brennan says what he feels, even when it makes Haley question their future together. Brennan word-vomited all weekend long regarding Chris Leonetti. The more he tried to explain, the deeper and more gay the hole he dug. Ew.
  • "Chris really grew into himself. He used to be so.....soft.....and dirty." So clearly, Brennan is implying that Chris is now hard and clean? Ew.
  • "No, I just mean I never imagined ever saying Chris Leonetti was handsome, but he is." So again, Brennan implies that (a) at some point in the past, he wondered if he'd ever find Chris handsome and (b) had decided that no, he would not and (c) changed his mind upon seeing him this weekend. Ew. Sorry, Haley.
Moment #5: Midnight swimmers

Sara was the first to bolt for the shoreline.....and she just kept running. I guess that's what happens when you get some freedom from the kids. You just want to run and run and never come back. And then Devin and Walker decided to join the fun. Friday in D.C., Walker lost his contacts. Saturday, he lost his glasses. Who knew that disrobing on a beach lit only by the moon and diving in would cause him to misplace them. Whatever, he had a ducky t-shirt on, so he was cool. And Devin decided to do a little elvin dance to celebrate!

COS,
well done sir, I couldn't have put it any better myself. I am so glad you guys all made it and i think that it is best summarized by what i told Azure the next morning... "Hey Wife I had a really good time at our wedding" she simply smiled and said " i know you did sweetheart I think everyone knows that you did"
Great pics cant wait to see some more whenever someone put them up... I cant wait to see the video if there is any.

Another example of EP living up to his nickname:

Towards the end of the reception when a bunch of us were just sitting at a table... EP walks into the room, gets everyone's attention, and announces to the crowd "Hey guess what?.... I got a fucking wife!"

Classy.

Sas i believe that was followed by an "OH!!!"

Ryan Costello said...

Yeah, Cutter, I was surprised by the frequency of your "OH!!!"s.

It's like you suddenly turned into Andrew Dice Clay.
