The Festival Of Dan And Anna
Last week, my friends Dan and Anna got married here in NYC.
It was all very fun and tons of great people flew in from all over the place.
Here's my quick re-cap. Let's get things started off with the bachelor party:
The night started off at this place called The Four Faced Liar in the West Village.
Here's Dan and I. Note the devilish gleam in his eye.
After a few drinks, all of the sudden this guy walks in and delivers about one hundred tacos to our group, courtesy of the near-groom himself.
So tough!
Once we were fortified, it was time to move on to our next phase: McCarren Park in Brooklyn.
You can just tell that Aaron is ready.
The plan was to do random fun things and tests of strength.
We started off with a game of kickball. Actually, I guess the technical name for the style we played that night was "Sloshball". (you couldn't pass second base until you drank a beer out of the cooler that was waiting for you there)
Here, the two captains, Vince and Dan, picked teams. They saved the best pick for last.
Behold our intimidating, near undefeatable team!
I don't remember the official score, but I do remember that somehow we finished off 50 giant cans of beer in well under an hour.
After that kind of performance, the only logical next event had to be...
...Pull Up Competition!!! (the above contestants are Dan, Jeff, and Adam)
The final standings were:
1st place: Shane
2nd place: Jeff
3rd place: ME!!
4th place: Adam
Good work everyone!
After this, the night becomes hazy. I do know that we ended up at Bar Matchless for a while, and then I have vague memories of some place called Gallagher's 2000(potentially NSFW).
........
The next day, I called in sick for work. I also got a haircut and took a nap.
........
Finally, on Saturday, we had ourselves a wedding.
Not in some boring old church either. Instead, the ceremony took place at the shnazzy Waldorf Astoria hotel.
Kelly, Me, Aaron, and Lisa, about to make our entrance.
Fancy pantsy!
This is the only good picture that I got of the actual ceremony. Sorry. But don't Adam, Min, and Eric Z. look nice?
Yes. Yes they do.
Anyways, after the vows were exchanged, we were treated to lots of great appetizers and red wine and white wine and champagne and vodka and whiskey and beer.
Then it was time for dinner and dancing.
Fancy table, no?
After we were seated, it was time to introduce and bring in the wedding party:

These pics are awesome! Thanks for posting them :-) Too bad that the bachelor party and wedding had to end. I had SO much fun eating, drinking, laughing & falling on my butt. Hope to see you guys again soon.

And Anthony! How handsome you look in your suit!
Why, thank you Anonymous!
I was so jazzed by these photos, I couldn't sleep.
I don't know about those final chin-up scores. I'm pretty sure Shane won... and that's becasue I let him.
Oops, you are right Eric. It is corrected. And I swear, you almost had him!!
