To get ready for the ceremony, my mom, my sister and myself decided to rent a room at the Eurobuilding hotel, where the process started with me eating a huge ice cream to calm down and pack on calories as I knew eating was not going to be a priority during the party, and as you can see below the extreme make over was ready to begin (my eye bags were huge after a non-stop week)
Time for pictures!!!. The photographers came on time: 5.00 pm but by then I was not ready: the make-up was just starting so the race against the sunset started and whit only 10 minutes of sun left I was ready for my pictures at 5.40 pm, so I run out of the room and went to the lobby to start the photo time... and differently from the groom I did enjoy it. Jon had his video and pictures session at 3.00 pm because I though it was fun to catch him and his groomsmen getting ready for the wedding, but as demonstrated by his face below, he obviously did not enjoy (he was sleep deprived and the pictures took the only few hours he could get a nap before the wedding)
And finally the time is here, the car is waiting for me and my dad to go to the church so here we go!. I got to the church and I was a bit nervous but it did not prevent me from having a granola bar, and the little chat with Lisette, Sandy and Tata helped a lot.
Now the show has to start!!!
Entering the church to my father's arm was an unforgettable experience: there
I am with the man that gave me life and has fulfill it with the best of the best to make me happy, now transferring the responsibility to the man that will complete my happiness for the rest of our lives. The “wedding march” playing, and all our beloved friends and families making this day more than memorable. A good priest that understood that religion is not everything in life: if I have no love, I am nothing (1 Corinthians)... everything perfect, except for how hot the church was to the point that I have to ask to please turn on the fan before I fainted ;o)
Walking out of the church was equally exciting: men and wife holding hands and receiving great wishes, kisses and hugs. It is awesome looking around and realizing that everyone who is there loves you and came to demonstrate their appreciation.So, now is time for the party to begin: get into the car and start driving with the horns knocking on your name and even strangers wishing you happiness. That way we got into de party room, where we received applauses when entering and open the dance floor with a Venezuelan Vals: Dama Antanona. The toast, more kisses, hugs and the party has officially started!!!
Party time flied... I don't exactly remember who I talked to adn who I did not, but I do remember enjoying every second of my party: Jon's father especial singing (that was so cool!!!), the crazy partying with the flying dragon and monkey during the "Hora Loca", la "meneadera" during "Tambores", and althoug I did not really eat I know the the few sips I got to drink and the "1 tequeno" and "chupe" I ate were delicious.
