The Big Day!  The guys started off with a big, local breakfast and then a straight-edge shave.  After lunch, all the groomsmen met up in one of the guy's hotel room for final prep - a shot of vodka!  Alan is given the box of rings - don't lose it!!  Then we go to pictures in the stylish entryway into the Andaz.  Finally, the gang makes its way to the wedding site, situated on a scenic grassy area overlooking the ocean, with a harpist setting the relaxing tone.  The guests milled around until it was time for Jen's dramatic entry.  Alan lost his bet to ML that JM would be able to hold it together until the vows - nope, he started tearing up as soon as he saw Jen in her stunning wedding gown.  The officiate blew the sacred Hawaiian conch shell and the dreamlike wedding started.  Jen and JM shared their personal vows, bring the everyone to tears.  They kept on illicitly kissing before they were officially married.  Shocking!  Finally the officiate gave in and pronounced them man and wife!

We celebrated with champagne at the lovely site with the lovely couple.  While family pictures were being taken, Alan went over to the reception area to prepare the reception table.  During sunset, all the guests came over, signing in the beautiful picture guestbook of all the places J&J travelled to, picking up their personalized flip flops, enjoying the specially-created cocktails, and finding their vacation-themed table.

During the yummy dinner, the speeches began.  Jen's parents kicked it off, then JM's brother, Alan, Lael, and finally JM's parents.  Finally, under the "infinite stars canopy," we danced to the hottest songs, celebrating our best friends getting married.  It was an absolutely gorgeous wedding, and we've gone to many to compare!
