It's been a long long day and I still haven't had much to drink, I'm waiting till the dances are done then I'm going to cut loose a bit. It's been nothing but hugs and smiles and handshakes and everybody stopping us cuz they want to say hi and beautiful speeches and I am pooped. It's a fantastic wedding. I'm still nervous about my dance even though I'm tired as f***. But in a moment after I watch two minutes of chainsmoker cat. I'm going to head back out there and try my hardest not to fall on my ass on a lumpy dance floor outside. Wish me luck.

Fascinating post. So rare to see something on the internet written in the heat of a moment like this.

Thanks, I'm not sure why I opened up Lemmy. I guess I just needed somewhere to vent all this nervous energy for a sec. Glad you enjoyed it

Congratulations! And good job taking a moment when you needed it.

Be sure to steal a moment to eat something, too!

Fifteen hours!?!?!?!? Good grief! Well however much you have left, good luck!

Finally winding down, the choreographed dance we've been practicing for two months went great, I messed up placement but no one noticed cause we boxed back to the correct spot in time. I actually screwed up my back good this morning sleeping wrong so I was worried I wouldnt get to do it. But the acetomenophin did it's job and we nailed it. Thank God.

Soak it up. Not all of us will get that experience. I'm super jelly if you can't tell.

Congratulations. I hope you have many years of amazing memories ahead.

Congrats! I had my wedding reception last night (we eloped last year), and it's surreal to be reading this the next morning. I feel that anxiety surrounding all the planning, and the waiting, and the anticipation... We had a great time at ours -- In the end, it felt like it was all over too soon. Hope you have a great time at yours.

Congrats! Hope it went well.

It's a bit too late now, but for anyone else, make sure someone packs you both a takeaway food box, as well as beverages.

When we got married, we spent the whole time going around talking to people and neither one of us got a chance to really eat. Fortunately, someone with experience had thought ahead. We ended up back at our place super late, tired, happy, starving, and grateful to discover the goodie bag.

Good luck

Dont worry

The dance doesnt have to be more than a minute. After that, gesture to invite your friends and family to join

Donโ€™t you just wish you could suck the log back into your butt and shit it out all over again? sigh

[-] Dudewitbow@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 days ago

take a breather, have fun and enjoy the unique time.

just remember to make responsible decisions that you wont regret
