Finally we are to the main event, the wedding that we travelled to mexico for. We know fiona from our UBC days. She was on the sister floor to my floor during my first year at university, way back in 2000. i got to know her, and on one of the trips that noa came to visit me, she got to know fiona also, and they became friends. anyways, fast forward and I get invited to the wedding because those two are best friends now! We finally got to meet Chente for the first time on a trip to vancouver last year.
the wedding ceremony and reception were in this beautiful building that used to be a house, and the top floor was converted to a solarium. there were huge windows along one whole wall. the ceremony was soon after we arrived, and after food and drinks started circling.
i don’t like to get in the way of the official photographers, so i was just clicking away from the corner, using high ISO so as not to use my flash.

needless to say, it was an awesome wedding. we had such a wonderful time dancing and partying, and it was so much nicer because by this point, we had gotten to know most everyone pretty well due to all the trips we went on together. that made it much more enjoyable for myself, because i felt like i knew everyone. thanks for organizing such a great wedding for us to attend Fiona!
