Treely, Madly, Deeply: Our Grand Entrance

Our cocktail hour immediately followed our ceremony. The wedding party headed back upstairs to the suite, where we cried together and shared our excitement.

Mr. Palm Tree had a little breakdown moment as soon as we got upstairs, so I gave him my handkerchief. Best Man R is, yet again, talking about how much he hates his shoes.
We all hung out and took the time to just breathe (there was a lot of breathing on our wedding day, apparently. I'll take it!). . .and to drink. I remember that GM Pythagoras and I both ordered the same thing (Captain and Coke) and we were both impressed by how strong they were. I remember remarking that I was amazed that none of us were drunk yet, despite having been drinking all day - since essentially 7:00am in the girls' cases! I remember Pad & Pie housing our cookies, which our attendant was nice enough to bring up to us (sidenote: I cannot remember her name for the life of me, but she was amazing). We all did a shot and then, DJ Dan lined us up for our Introductions. 

Introductions are always one of my favorite parts of weddings - even now, executing them every single weekend (for real), I still stand inside the room to watch and see what people do. It's like the official beginning - like saying, the typical stuff is over, here are our personalities!
