 Marisa, PLEASE remind me what song they were singing to you!!  I love EVERYTHING about this photo!

 

NAPERVILLE, Ill. Marisa and Anthony are two of the most smilingest, genuine, full of life people we've ever EVER met.  As a matter of fact, as I was taking the usual badass photos of the guys… I asked him not to smile… it was nearly impossible for him!  Usually with guys… it's the exact opposite problem.  Their joy is so incredibly contagious… EVERYONE was in the BEST of spirits… the wedding party, the vendors, the guests… everyone! Just thinking about them has me with a HUGE smile on my face. Okay Okay… I'm sure you get the idea…

Marisa planned an incredible day… not ONE thing was overlooked. From her shoes (with the DIY flower) to the rosary (the beads were made of the dried roses from her grandmother's funeral)… everything was so perfect and so personal.  Don't you love showing up to someones wedding and feeling like you know them even better than you did before simply because of all of the little details??? YEAHYEAHYEAHYEAH!

To you two, your AMAZING friends and family… Thank you thank you THANK YOU for EVERYTHING!Let's hang out again soon, k?

LOVE LOVE LOVE!

LOUISVILLE, Ky. BEST WEDDING DANCE WE'VE EVER WITNESSED…. EVERRRRRR!!!!!

So, Katie and Burny had been planning on having a surprise first dance… and had been planning it for a long time. Who knew that Burny does an AMAZING Michael Jackson… and THAT had been their planned rehearsed dance for MONTHS.  WELLLLLLLL… Michael Jackson died TWO days before their wedding.  So, Katie thought it wouldn't be a good idea to go through with it.  Burny, on the other hand… wasn't budging! He was ready to bust out his moon walk.  AND MOOOON WALK HE DID!!!!!!!  NO one knew it was coming… NO ONE!!!!! (well, we knew… but only because we had to be prepared). Not even the best man/maid of honor knew. 

Okay… so, I'm going to try to give you guys a play by play… and we all KNOW how AMAZING I am at this! (not) They did their first dance RIGHT as they were introduced (which is always my FAVORITE time for a first dance… as ALLLL of your guests are looking at you) and began to dance to "Nothing Fancy" by Dave Barnes.  Out of nowhere, Burny leaves and walks over to the DJ… I hear someone mutter behind me, "What the hell is he doing?!" Katie appears pissed.  Then the DJ says that Burny has a different idea for what their first dance should be… "Billie Jean" starts playing. Burny comes out of nowhere with a hat and sequins glove and busts out his best Michael Jackson dance moves! OH YES HE DID>>>> OH YESSSSS HE DID!!!!!! Katie, meanwhile is still appearing angry… hands on hips with a scowl.  About halfway through Billie Jean, we see her storm over to the DJ.  Again, I hear muttering behind me, "ohhh she's mad… she's going to stop the music!" The DJ then says that Katie wants him to play a different song. "The Way You Make Me Feel" starts playing.  Katie starts dancing with Burny… the crowd FINALLY realizes that it's all been planned.    I wish you all could have seen it!  Oh wait… there's a video of it!  CLICK HERE TO SEE IT! :D 

I have to say that though Katie feared that maybe the timing was off with their dance happening just two days after the death of Michael Jackson… but really… it was such an awesome homage.  And the crowd loved every second of it.

Katie and Burny, we canNOT thank you enough for EVERYTHING!!!!!! You're the best best best BEST!

Love
