Mr. & Mrs. Marinelli

I watched my best friend get married this past weekend.  Her wedding was amazing, beautiful, wonderful…the weather…not so much.  Rain, snow, wind, frigid temperatures.  But it didn’t matter.  All bridesmaids put their hair up, we brought the mums inside for pictures and Mel was the ray of sunshine anyway.  Her rehearsal dinner was awesome.  Her sister in law put on a photo montage to music. Every time Preston saw himself  on the montage, he’d raise his hand.  Speaking of Preston, someone was an ANGEL.  I mean on the best behavior I’ve seen in months.  Stinker!  Here are some pictures.  I’ll post the rest on Facebook this weekend.  I love you Mel and Pete.  A lifetime of happiness and love to you both!

Love this picture.  Brett is either 6’9 or 6’10.  Preston called him the Big Man and he was Mr. Tiny.

Pres passed out.

WEDDING DAY!!!!!!!!

Yes she wore red satin shoes!!!!  Mel is the biggest shoe fanatic!!!

 

 

The godsons!!!!

Then we hit the local bar and took the coolest pictures ever!

Getting introduced was so much fun.  We all made up routines.  The best man Steve and I did a football toss/run for a touchdown.  Mel and Pete came in to “Thriller.”

My maid of honor speech was pretty awesome.  Remember for Katie’s I put in 30 Billy Joel song titles?  Well since Mel and I are lawyers, as are many of the people in the room, I did a closing argument.  Steve was my opposing counsel, Pete was his client, Mel was mine and the guests were the nuptial jury.  Complete with my mother’s glasses, I convinced the jury in a unanimous verdict that Mel was the best friend a girl could ever ask for. 

Pres passed out….again.

A beautiful day…a beautiful bride….Congratulations again Mel and Pete!!!
