By the time we got up to the Groom Squad’s suite, it was already about midnight. I was exhausted, but I wanted to live up every moment before my body and mind finally shut down. Mr. Library also needed to grab his belongings from the suite, so we decided to join in on the impromptu after-party that was taking place. There weren’t many people, just a handful of groom squad members, bridesmaids, and their dates (the sign of an awesome wedding if everyone wants to hang out even when they aren’t being told to do it!). People passed around some drinks, and we all settled in just to chat.
There were definitely some stories told that made me question just how much I knew about our friends (weddings bring out the crazies in people, I tell you!) and there were times that made us closer together. As much as I wanted to just pass out, I am glad we spent that time with our friends after.
Around 12:30, Mr. Library and I called it a night and told our friends good night. We walked back to our hotel room, grabbed my heels and a groomsman’s jacket that had been left at one of the tables, and got on the elevator to our suite. On the way up, two gentlemen joined us. See that Mr. Library was in a suit and I was in a dress, they asked if we had gone to the wedding.
We looked at each other, smiled, and said a sheepish, “Oh yeah!”
The guy then asked if it was any good, and we smiled even wider and gave him a simple, “Yes, very good.”
Once we reached our suite, it was bedtime. There was brunch and a pool party to get to in the morning!
Walk me through this:
Our bridal party began to come together!
The girls and I have a slumber party!
Ding ding ding goes the trolley
The guests are coming! The guests are coming!
We find a snack in a pretty field.
You have a little something on your face…
There’s so much to love about the reception.
We could have danced all night!
