So we thought we were pretty much set for the wedding on Friday...and then while I was soliciting suggestions for restaurants in the Annapolis area, a friend pointed out that this weekend is the annual boat show.

The boat show that pretty much shuts down all of Annapolis as people try to get to the harbor.

And then I Googled and saw an article saying they sold a record number of tickets.

Needless to say, this morning we were scrambling for other options. But, as luck would have it, there is a little wedding chapel in Crownsville, which is about 30 minutes away, same distance as Annapolis. I contacted the officiant that runs the chapel and she replied immediately and said they had an opening for Friday afternoon! So the crisis has been averted!

And for those of you that love pictures, my Mom decided to hire a photographer at the last minute. We have the chapel for 90 minutes, so she just hired the photographer for an hour, keeping the cost low. So we should have some good photos, hopefully!

Now I need to figure out how to style my hair...and do make-up...well, they can just photoshop that later, right? :P

Aren't you guys happy this wedding is over and done with on Friday? I'll stop filling up your LJ feed with this nonsense.

OH AND IN MORE IMPORTANT NEWS ----- ROCK BAND 4 SHIPPED TODAY! I should have it tomorrow!!!!!!!!! I"M SO READY TO ROCK OUT!

I'm also playing Dance Central again in an attempt to get in shape. I got a little overzealous today and told it I wanted a 30 minute workout...then died after about 15 because the game gives you ZERO breaks when you're in workout mode. Tomorrow I will do it in game mode so I can have a moment to breath between songs. I'm also going to hook up the Xbox 360 Kinect because the DC game on Xbox One does not import your DC1-3 tracks, only things you purchased. So I have a total of 12 songs on there now, vs the Xbox 360 where I have probably 40 tracks.

Glad you were able to find another venue. I hope it's a beautiful day for you. :)
Rock Band 4!!! So jealous. We should've started saving sooner.

Oh wow!! That's some awesome last minute planning! And that's so sweet that your mom hired a photographer. :)

Gaming-wise, do you just do XBox these days, or do you have a PS4 too? We just got the latter towards the end of summer, and I'm trying to find a new game for us, but I've been out of the gaming game for so long, I don't even really know where to start.

I am surprised the hitching isn't occurring at the Rennfest chapel!

Planning stuff on the fly, I like it! :DDD This is how it should be done~!

Oh man, Dance Central... hahaha We got it for the WiiU, and errrr.. I've only played it like once ^^;;; it was a lot of fun, but clearing the living room to have enough space is too much of a hassle :P
