Rehearsal Night

The wedding is now only 2 days away. We finally had to wrap up most of our preparations and hand over various items to our venue.

With the help of Kim, we loaded up my car and arrived about 45 minutes before the scheduled 7pm start time of the rehearsal. In that time we met up with Barb of The Black Forest Inn and moved various items into her office. The items included wedding favours for our guests, ceremony programs, seating chart, place cards etc.

The rehearsal started on time with our officiant Trish in charge of the proceedings. We did a couple of dry runs and once everyone was satisfied we wrapped things up at the venue.

From there, we all went to St. Louis Bar & Grill for dinner. Joining Heather and I were our parents, Heather's grandparents Harry & Jan, my brothers Greg with Justyna and Wojtek with Agnes, Heather's sister Kim with Mike, and our friends Darryl and Erin, Remi and Lisa, Dennis and Diana, and Jessica. Also with us was my cousin Greg who flew in from Poland only yesterday for this special occasion.

The dinner went very well as in addition to great food, we also handed out some gifts for our wedding party. After about two hours at the restaurant we all dispersed and went home.

Heather and I would like to again thank everyone who came out tonight, especially those that came from out of town. It was a special night and we can't wait for another one in less than 48 hours.

Everyone is in position.
