Chasing Cars - Final Portraits

While the party raged on in the reception, our photographer stole Matt and I away for a few more portraits.  There is an antique car/wagon that is set up specifically for pictures, so we took advantage and got some really pretty shots.  I had really hoped that we would be able to get some pictures around some of the other cars and in some other "scenes" around the museum, but it just didn't happen.  We'd discussed all of this with our photographer when we met with her before the wedding, but she ended up being sick the day of our wedding, so we had replacement photographers.  They were good, and took beautiful pictures, but we didn't get everything we'd hoped for.  Oh well.  On to the pictures we did get...

I kind of wish the photographer had reminded me to change into my nice shoes

Finally, we headed back in to the reception and joined up with our friends.

Sick of our ugly mugs yet?  Good, cuz that's the last you'll see of us.  Up next, I wrap up the recaps with all the details!

Chasing Cars - Please Don't Stop the Music

Among our friends and family, there are certain things you can count on at weddings.  One is Matt's brother, Mike, morphing into John Travolta and doing the dance from Saturday Night Fever.

The other is what my girlfriends and I call "The Oh What a Night Dance." [yes, we're very creative] It's a line dance we learned in high school at this skeezy dance club we used to go to (I still can't believe our parents let us!).  It's to the song "Oh What a Night" and it is absolutely a must-have at every single wedding when we're all together.

Otherwise, there was still plenty of hot moves on the dance floor!

If you've seen the movie Airplane, you know what's happening here

I had SO much fun out on the dance floor with all of our friends and family.  I wanted it to last all night long.  Up next, we take just a few more portraits...

Chasing Cars - I Wanna Dance with Somebody

Once the dinner and the cake cutting and the traditional dances were out of the way, it was time to hit the dance floor.  And our DJ made sure that the dance floor was on FI-YAH!  I remember only 2 slow songs playing all night long.

Baby C had to get in on the party

Of course, the inevitable dance circle started...

I'm trying to entice that redhead into the circle

Mom's best friend.

Notice someone conspicuously missing?  Yeah, me too.  Matt is not a dance-floor kind of guy, so he was off being the congenial host...
