The afterglow.

The wedding could not have been more perfect. 

On Friday we honored the bride with a lunch at Mary Mahoney's in Biloxi. The bubbly flowed, the flowers were gorgeous, the food was delicious. Here is bride Margaret and her almost 97 year old grandmother. (My Mom.)

Friday night we attended the rehearsal dinner. Again - delicious food, lovely table decor, and family and friends aplenty!

Family.

On Saturday we joined brothers and sisters in the crow's nest at a restaurant named Felix's. I tasted their barbecue shrimp and it gets a big thumbs up! I enjoyed a shrimp/oyster poboy for my lunch. 
It was a beach-y place with lots of nice breeze. 

The wedding ceremony was deeply emotional. Not crying, just very sincere and special. Two maternal grandfathers presided, one a retired Methodist minister, one a Baptist minister. They each were so sweet in their separate remarks and had some lines of the ceremony they delivered in unison. 

The reception was ultra fun! We stayed on the dance floor until the band packed up! Good food, fun dancing, good times, man. 


Nana looked exceptionally lovely in her wedding attire. She attended the wedding and was feeling well enough to go to the reception where she stayed long enough to visit with the bride and eat some wedding cake!

Special moment between Nana and Margaret.

Macho and I showed our skills. Not for long. The floor got crowded quickly and stayed that way most of the night. But we hung in there and partied with the best of them. 

Margaret and Nathan's happily ever after party was something else! 
Shalom.
