Lemme tell you, it was crazy.
While continuing your reading, please enjoy listening to Mumford & Sons- I Will Wait
They are amazing.
This weekend was ridiculous, but lovely (for the most part).
Friday I worked, yay.
Then sat around Friday night.
Saturday I had to work at 5am so that I could attend my coworkers wedding.
During the day at work I had the WORST anxiety ever.
I was nervous, and wanted to puke.
In hindsight it was stupid to be so nervous, but being the one running the department right now, I was nervous of what I would walk into this morning.
Thanks to the Vikings-Packers game we were getting killed at work- apparently everyone wanted bread with their football!
Anyway, after surviving work I headed downtown to the Basilica in Minneapolis to watch the beautiful couple marry each other.
Majestic, but also feels intimate.
The ceremony was perfect, and the bride looked stunning in her lace gown.
Most of my coworkers have never attended a Catholic wedding ceremony before, so they thought it was a long ceremony.
Little do they know how much shorter it was than a traditional Catholic wedding mass ceremony...
Anyway, after the ceremony we took a group picture on the front steps of the church, and then headed to the reception.
When the bride and groom arrived to the reception I noticed her dress dragging and getting dirty.
Her posse (bridesmaids) weren't nearby, so I helped her bustle her dress.
Even when I'm not part of the wedding I end up helping the bride somehow- I don't get it...
The food was amazing, as were her handmade centerpieces (21 snow globes, and 21 table runners), and the cake (that the bride made)!
Vegan cake!
Of course I chose the chicken option... #wonttrynewthings
After dinner and before dancing we heard beautiful speeches from the father of groom and the father of the bride, and then the best man and maid of honor sang a beautiful song for the couple.
It was wonderful.
Then my coworkers and I participated in photo shenanigans.
Sam-me-Jayme
Me and Jayme - bffs
We even managed to get a picture of most of the Bakery family <3

After dancing well past my bedtime, I headed home in order to get a few hours of sleep before work this morning.
I had been up since 3:30am on Saturday, so by 10pm I was exhausted.
Sunday came and went, and I am prepared to work the last 3 days in my 7 day work stretch.
Game. One.
I will leave you with one last picture of the beautiful couple!

Happy Sunday,
