Review: tatgirl's & Irish Graham's wedding...
So, I am sure that everyone would wonder how a TA wedding would actually go...
...and it would go just as you all would imagine.
No other wedding would have a wonderful mix of Cafe del Mar as the opening song.
I would like to thank Nathalie and Graham for the invitation, I know that it must have been difficult to decide when you draw the line on the amount of people coming. The whole world would have wanted to be at this wedding.
Also thank you to Nathalie for thinking of many little details like a big bus to ship us all to and from the reception hall.
Now to the good stuff: The bus arrived at the hall and Graham was already greeting everyone warmly. He looked nervous but happy. The drinks were flowing from the bar and finger foods were being passed around. I hope whoever are the potato balls didn't burn their tongue as much as I did. Mingling with all the guests was great. Got to meet some of the Irish invation and many of Nathalie's old friends.
After about an hour of mingling, they called everyone into the room and there was a beautiful alter set up with seats for the guests to watch the cerimony. As everyone was getting settled we all started to finally focus on the music and that's right, Cafe del Mar was playing in the background. The others can fill in the other songs that were played at the beginning.
We were all patiently waiting to finally see the bride. The wedding party walked and finally Nathalie was accompanied by her brother and mom down the aisle. She looked amazing. The dress, the hair, the makeup were perfect. Nothing else could have been expected. Graham looked extremely confident and happy. The ceremony itself was very good. I was surpsised how well the reglions and traditions were blended together. Once the vows were said and papers signed, it was time to celebrate.
As the tables for the dinner and dancing were being set up, we all mingled some more and tried to figure out who we were sitting with at each table. The seating arrangements were also very well done. Nathalie is a true perfect hostess (but we all knew that already).
Music was the best part of this wedding (thanks to Muff2K who was the wedding DJ). I never heard such nice blending of traditional wedding tunes and dance tracks we all know and love. A big surprise was the Samba Crew coming in and doing a 20 minute show for us. That is something I will never forget. Even the older family members were into the whole thing.
Food was great, drinks were plentiful, people were all nice.
I can safely say: "THE BEST WEDDING!!".
Congrats again and now onto the honeymoon phase!!!
Congrats to both of you !! Best wishes 
(we obviously need pics)
Now I'll ask you the same question everyone was asking me right after (or during) the wedding.... 
When is the first kid due??? 
I truly wish the best for the both of you! I am positive that it was an amazing wedding, and I am sure I will get all the details from Franny! Go to town on your honeymoon, huys!! 
wow sounds awesome! hoping somebody shot vids ..... ?

(10 star wedding!)
Nathalie and Graham had a beautiful wedding. Everything was perfect. Thank you both.
I have 166 (!) photos that I am currently in the process of touching up and then I'll post the photos and my full review.
Congratulations Nat and Graham!
One of the best wedding ive ever been to. Simply Beautiful.
Everything was just so perfect, from the welcoming families of both of these two, to the vows that suited them to a T, to the music that we were singing along to from the moment we walked in.
Nathalie and Graham looked happy and so in love. The moment they stood at the alter together I just could not hold back the tears, this crying continued throughout the night, especially during Graham's brother's speech, just perfect.
Congrats to the happy couple, I am honoured to have been a part of this.
Les photes? these are going to be doozies!
Congrats to you both
Can't wait to see the photos. I'm sure you were both stunning.

The only wedding with a tracklisting.
Adagio for strings was also played.
But seriously, if anyone is looking for a wedding DJ (he also MCed) Jarek is your man. He also looks good in photos with those nice blue eyes.
Ryan Parks did the photography so we should also expect some nice shots. Along with all the other cameras being used all over the place.

Even if it weren't our own wedding, I woulda said it was the best wedding I ever attended. The end result surpassed even my own expectations. Ryan Parks should have a webpage set up later today, which we will share w/everyone.
muff2k did an awesome job dj'ing, the banquet hall supassed my expectations in terms of food, bar, decor & presentation, both families got along royally, speeches were awesome, bus and limo worked out great, I heard the traditional irish musicians were good (I couldn't hear them, I was 'in hiding'), everyone looked so stunning and handsome all dolled up, and the surprise guests of the night- Samba Elegua- stole the show.
But most of all, the guests- you really made the night. You brought the party vibe. So glad u all had fun.
Haven't had much rest or peace all week, barely getting a minute to sit down, still entertaining my new in-laws and out of town visitors. I wish my friends coulda stayed here longer. Thanks for making them feel welcome. The whole weekend was a blast, from the Ice Lounge and onward.
We love you all- thanks for being part of our special weekend.
this picture trips me out
and while I can't recall Adagio being played, we had the chill out 10 min version of Cafe del Mar played for when u were seating yourselves, walked down the aisle to Ligaya- Gouryella, and walked out to Allegria- Cirque du Soleil.
So many good tunes played that night, even a techno set. Jarek is gonna make us a cd of all the songs played. Can't wait!
This is the best:
