On Friday September 7, Chris and I rushed off after work to James and Maria's rehearsal at the beautiful St. Barnabas church in Bellmore, New York.
When we arrived, the first order of business was to sign the marriage license.

And then the rehearsal began. Maria walked down the aisle with a cute little flower to hold as her bouquet.
The rehearsal dinner was right down the street at
Paddy's Loft, where we all gathered for great drinks, food and fun!
