Weather!

Nov 23 Beautiful Rooster in Snow
Hey folks,

We're close enough for my weather widget to show the weather on the day of the wedding... I've got 72 and partly sunny right now. Anyway, we're down here and it's been great, but we just thought we'd let folks know that it's not going to be hot or anything - you might consider bringing a sweater. Also, brush your teeth and make your bed.

The wedding par-tay

It has come to my attention that other wed-sites contain feature information regarding the wedding party, and not just self-centered pictures of bride and groom. Therefore, ladies and gentlemen, may I present:

Alicia Cort AKA "doodles" (brideslady): infamous in the art world for her eerily realistic cardboard "reproductions" of Harrison Ford, "doodles" will be wearing many hats during the wedding: beauty and fashion consultant, person-on-call, and guest blesser.

Beth Reddy AKA "il pinguino" (brideslady): Armed with nothing more than a hammer, a sharpie, and a pith helmet, "il pinguino" has been known to terrorize both unsuspecting trees and entire branches of anthropologic theory. At the same time. She is known among Chicago's mafia elite for her excellent table manners.

Jason Tabert AKA "snickers" (groomsman): A paragon of punctuality, except the opposite, J.R. Tabert will be bringing the "party" to our wedding party. He was entered into both the Guinness book of world records and the anti-defamation league's "most wanted list" for being the first person to simultaneously offend every race, class, gender, ethnicity, religion, and special interest group, with a single joke told in a bar. We are looking forward to making him spend time with anthropologists. Which brings us to...

Adam Sargent AKA "Durkheim's ghost" (groomsman): Another "associate" of the Chicago underground, Adam is a medical miracle, having successfully contracted every form of hepatitis, typhoid, yellow fever, and malaria during his treks through the Dark Continent. He has recently joined the wedding cascade by becoming engaged to the incomparable Megan Lagess. Planning a wedding is awesome... Everyone is doing it... join us...... BRAAAIIINNS

Wedding Attire

A few of you have been asking about appropriate attire for our blessed occassion. It will be an outdoor, backyard wedding with an "elegant picnic" vibe. Sundresses would be appropriate, perhaps with a wrap for later in the evening. Just don't wear really spiky heels - you might sink in the grass! The fellas don't need to be black tie - we would prefer you not wear jeans, but you guys know we are not particular. I hope this helps!

Wedding Time Info

disco
Hey everyone,

I've heard some folks are already booking tickets for June. Cool! I thought this might be a good time to let folks know a bit about the schedule: We're going to be kicking things off Sunday at 4pm, with dinner around 6pm, and reception to follow. Translation: We'd really encourage people not to leave until Monday so that you can stay and have fun with us until late in the evening Sunday. I know, vacation days... But come on... Do it for the gipper, woudja?
