The weekend before the most recent, I flew out to hot Arizona to attend the wedding of the one and only Winer. The boy's all growns up--from the guy I met my first year at Brown who I thought was Canadian, deduced from the gigantic Canadian flag hanging in his dorm room, but was actually from Wayland, Massachusetts to now married (Congrats) and about to embark on the next leg of his medical career (Congrats)! Tear. [Note: All the pictures below were snapped by either Annie or Miana because my camera battery died--Thanks ladies!!!!]
Annie, Allan, Liz, Mike, Sara and me (I remember consciously deciding not to show my pearly whites because I was convinced I had goat cheese or something stuck between my teeth).
AWWW. Allan's dogs are the coolest. So friendly.
Stephanie looking frazzled. Hah.
Allan the Best Man, Winer the Groom, and Justin the Deputy Best Man. Winer rolled deep that weekend with TWO best men. Fuck you tradition, he says.
Allan is 50/50 responsible for bring Steph and Winer together.
Very lovely dinner with band at casa Stephanie's parents (such sweet people). We definitely did not have plants like that in our yard in Alaska...
Liz, Allan, Mike (he and I were very much in agreement all weekend in the need for alcohol at all events).
The next afternoon, here we are in our tuxedos. Go Team Winer Alpha squadron! But why do my pants look like bell bottoms??
Our groomsmen ties were unfortunately a wee too long--the only mishap of the wedding, but Allan's brilliant father stepped in with a solution. "Tuck it into your shirts." BRILLIANT! And then he did some magical quad-triple back lux winsor knot with mine to make it a perfect length.
After taking The Professional Wedding Photos With The Professional Wedding Photographer outside in the 100 degree heat (thank god for the portable hand held fans and towels), we went inside where the actual union and signing of the wedding documents took place. But most importantly, "EVERYONE, THE BRIDE'S HAIR MUST REMAIN PERFECT!"
And then us boys requested the hairspray afterwards.
Nice setting. Look at dem mountains!
Winer, I'll never forgive you for misspelling my name on the program!!
The lovely ladies who'll have their own weddings soon.
We all kind of look constipated...but god damn, we look good in them yarmulke.
Post ceremony cocktail hour at the JCC!!
Ladies and Gentlemen...Mr. and Mrs. Berman!! Thanks Winer, for letting us pick you up in the chair! I've always wanted to do that. Twas dope.
Classically ruining yet another photo. Sorry Sara, it's my defense mechanism in the presence of a good looking woman!
Mmmm...wineeee. Lots and lots of wine.
Haha. Wow.
HAHAHAHA. It never gets old.
Mike dancing with Annie. And doing it well.
All growns up...
Good times...Good times.
Congrats Winer!
