PJ and Jack were having a traditional Chinese wedding at the Universal Hilton. Weddings are always so much fun to witness so Marc and I were excited. I was having a bit of a problem fitting into any of my current dresses, so when I was shopping with Chelle at Ross I picked up a purple cotton dress. It fit perfectly and I was so comfortable. Score! Comfort over Couture any day! What sucked was that I totally forgot the camera. Uuggghh! I always always have a camera with me, and I’m a loser and forgot it on the counter while charging the battery.

The wedding ceremony was short and sweet. Then we quickly went into reception mode. We even ran into our Nicki, our wedding photographer! I love her. PJ had asked Marc for our wedding vendor contacts and they ended up using Nicki and Eric. Sweet! While there Marc ran into his buddy Rex and his wife Emily. We shared funny stories and enjoyed open bar. 2 shots of Jack on the rocks for me… just kidding. I had a nonalcoholic Shirley Temple. We took some pix in the photo booth and picked up our name cards. It was awesome because both my name and Marc’s name were spelled wrong. I loved it! The give aways were little sachets and I swore I smelled chocolate in them, but Marc insisted there was nothing more than stuffing inside. Determined to prove I smelled chocolate, I started to undo the sachet. Marc was like, what are you doing? hello! getting to the chocolate. And sure enough.. there was chocolate inside. I told you! I’ve had such a sweet tooth lately, I know when there’s chocolate around. haha.

They finally opened the doors to the ballroom and the 10 course meal began. Chinese weddings are awesome for having such an elaborate dinner, but man oh man, did I want rice! The food was good and the Hilton even had a parade / soldier like way of entering and presenting each dish. The reception was half in Chinese and half in English and this super nice chick at our table helped to describe each dish as they came out. My favorite was the lobster and the fish. MMmmm. They even had a mini karaoke session. It was awesome!

PJ and Jack looked very happy!
