the wedding!

12.30.09 - The wedding was incredible, as I would have expected nothing less from Thailand/this resort/Ang and Todd. It started with a full procession, including about 12 people in full traditional Thai attire, chanting, singing, music, dancing - and we got to be a part of it too! Then the women did a welcome dance and we proceeded to walk to the area on the beach where the ceremony would be.

It was beautiful and the setting couldn't have been more perfect. After a beautiful ceremony with a perfect sunset in the background, we had cocktails and mingled then Todd and Ang planted a tree on the resort where it will forever be for them to come back to and visit. Then they cut cake, had the MOH and best man speeches (not a dry eye in the house), and then they brought us to the beach for a HUGE incredible fireworks display just for the wedding. Then we light these fire lanterns and let them fly off into the sky, which was awesome, then we had sparklers and celebrated - and this was all before dinner. Dinner was by the pool and overlooking the ocean. It was delicious and amazing like the rest of the ceremony/reception. The night was capped with a dance party on the beach with a great band and music and crowd. An amazing night celebrating a wonderful occasion!
