A Day, A Week, Hemant, A Year

It wasn’t long ago that I blogged about attending Noodle’s stag. Before we knew it December 31st had arrived, and we found ourselves at his and his lovely bride Krista’s wedding. Having the wedding on New Years Eve sounded like a great idea, and it proved to be an awesome time.

The wedding was at 4:30pm at St. Paul’s Anglican Church in Saskatoon. Luckily I was still on vacation so I didn’t have to worry about checking out of the office early. Travis was Adam’s best man and from what I hear, Krista kept him quite busy with wedding duties. As far as I can tell, he did a pretty good job. Gordo, Todd, Kipp, Steph, Jason, Cheryl, Michelle, and I had the privilege of attending the nice ceremony (play slideshow below).

We were in and out of the church in just over thirty minutes, and then headed straight to the Radisson for the rest of the festivities. Since we’ve had previous experience of being unable to find a taxi on New Years Eve in Saskatoon, most of us decided to just stay at the hotel. We checked in and made our way to cocktail hour.

The room was done up incredibly well, and was quite beautiful. I was impressed. All eight of us were seated at the same table where we enjoyed each other’s company, and the program prepared by the wedding party. Roast beef was the main course of the meal, and it was delicious. I ate too much for dessert, but I figured I was allowed since I was on holidays.

The rest of the night we spent dancing and performing other shenanigans. I gave everyone a little taste of my mad break-dancing skills that I mastered over twenty years ago. As with most weddings our crew attends, we danced until the DJ shut it down. Since we used so much energy over the evening, we ordered some delicious pizza in Kipp’s room and completely devoured it.

This was definitely a New Years Eve I will remember forever, and would like to thank Adam and Krista for letting me share the day with them. I wish them all the luck in their future together, and wish everyone else the best in 2008.
