I do!

Well, it’s official.. Mr. & Mrs. Young are chillin’ out in Jamaica as we speak! What a wonderful fun-filled wedding weekend, we had. It all started on Friday night, around 5:30 for the Rehearsal. The venue was at a private residence (no names, for blog purposes!) and it was beauuuutiful, but ooooh so HOT! Did I mention it was  H-O-T??!! ;) I took soooo many pictures, so I’ll post this blog, like I have with many others..through pics!

Here goes..

I had to include this next picture, because I can totally tell that Matt is “practicing his golf swing” in the background!!IMG_1876

After the rehearsal and dinner, no one was really ready to call it a night, so we all decided to head to McCann Street to keep the party going.

After a long crazy fun night, Matt and I headed home to rest up for wedding day! The next morning, all the guys went and played golf while I ran a couple of errands and waited on Matt to get home. The guys had to be there at 4:30, so I decided to brave the heat, and ride with him..
