Last weekend I had an overload of weddings. My cousin, Mark got married last Friday, and Michael’s coworker got married last Saturday. Both weddings were so beautiful. And more importantly, both weddings had open bar. Score!
Mark and Kelly had their wedding at this cute house in Orange called, The French Estate. The ceremony was held on the front lawn and reception followed in the backyard. It was a very small wedding, only select cousins and their spouses or significant others were invited.
I’m truly happy for my cousin and his new wife.
Welcome to the family, Kelly Modino! 
I love this picture. These are the Modino boys. We all grew up together when we were younger. Our parents did a good job in making sure we spent time with our cousins. I’m glad that I am still close to all of them.

I didn’t know the couple at the second wedding. I was just there as Michael’s plus 1. It was a very nice wedding, outdoors also, and well planned. The ceremony was so beautiful that for some odd reason my eyes were watery! My favorite part of the wedding was when the couple greeted their parents and exchanged words and hugs. Ahhhhh, I tried so hard to hold back the tears. It was so touching. Man, I don’t even know these people!
I’d have to say, this wedding is going to go in the books for one of the best weddings I’ve been to. The guest book was like nothing I’ve seen before. They took a Polaroid picture of you and your guest and posted it next to your name in the book. How cool is that idea? Hmmm…I think I want to steal that idea for my wedding. Hehe. Their wedding gifts to their guests were tea cups!!! Genius idea!
So of course we sat with other coworkers from Capital Group. Interesting group, I must say.
Here’s a fun fact:
My mom worked for Capital Group 10 years ago, and she was there for about 6 years. Weird huh?
Congrats to Austin and Sharon Lee. It was definitely nice meeting the lovely couple. I loved the filet mignon, pinkberry yogurt, and your guest book idea.
