Matt + Tanya: March 22, 2008
My Saturday night event wasn’t a wedding reception; it was a Jack-And-Jill wedding shower for Matt and Tanya. I’ve known Matt since I was about 4 years old. In fact, he was probably the first person that I met when my parents moved into their Freetown neighborhood in the late 1970s.
(For those of you wondering what a Jack-And-Jill wedding shower is, eHow.com seems to have the general idea figured out).
The party started at 6 with a cocktail hour, followed by an incredible meal coordinated by Matt’s dad – it’s rumored that everyone in that same Freetown neighborhood had sirloin roasts in their ovens on Saturday afternoon in preparation for the party. It’s also rumored that the manager of the function facility where the party was held has offered Matt’s dad a job in their kitchen. Cooking for 150 guests isn’t exactly an easy feat.
