Minnesota part 3...

The wedding day!
After 2 days of going out, I wasn't really excited about another night out, especially after I found out the reception lasted til 1AM, but Colleen is well worth it. We had to be up and in the lobby by 1 so that we could get our hair done at the salon. At the salon all the bridesmaid's, bride, mother of the bride, mother of the groom and honorary bridesmaid all had their hair done. It was fun to be pampered. Michelle and I did our nails there as well as our makeup. We finished a little late from there, the cab came late so we had to hail a taxi to get back to the hotel and quickly got dressed for the wedding. (hiding behind a wall so that our hair didn't get windblown)The bride had to get ready at the museum so all she had to do is grab her dress and accessories. We finished at 5 and we had to be on our way to the museum at 530/545. Wow, what a time crunch. (Sharon scarfing down food since they hadn't eaten all day)All went off without a hitch and Colleen and Kevin got married - while Colleen cried the whole time. The reception was beautiful complete with gorgeous center pieces, yummy food, fireworks(provided by the city) and great entertainment.
Overall Greg and I had a blast. We got back to the hotel around 130ish and Greg and I had to get up at 445AM to catch flights at 650AM. Talk about being tired. I slept as much as possible b/c I was driving back to SC to finish off my vacation with the fam.
