Creator of MetaFiler: Wedding Bliss, As Matt's Brother, I can report to all here at MetaFilter, the Wedding went as picture perfect as they imagined! No rain, Everybody was in time for the ceremony, Lucky no Television Reporters crashing or blocking streets, No helicopters hovering above. It was a beautiful, simple gathering of friends and family Here are the Exclusive Photo's only for the Metafilter Community: Exchanging of Vows and The Big Kiss! Best of luck to Matt & Kay!!!

I'm glad kay finally did the honorable thing.

what a beautiful dress!

and here's how truly pathetic I am: I teared up at the shot of them kissing.

Let this go to show you just how dangerous it is to have family members with internet access and a digital camera.

:)

thanks for the well wishes everyone.

Two thumbs up for the morning coat as well, Matt.

Now get out of this place, and enjoy your lune de miel.

Ah, I envy the two of you. The ability to exhale, not having to worry about caterers, not wanting to throttle family members as they ask you if they can bring the 16 members of their bridge club to the wedding... *sigh*. I'll get there one day.

Best wishes to the both of you, and I'll close with one of my tips for a happy marriage (given to me by my mom and dad who have been married for 48 years): always greet the each other when you come home in the evening.

(I don't get it either, but who am I to argue with 48 years?)

likorish: oddly enough, I think your parents had a very good idea there.

congratulations mathowie! I can't think of anything schmaltzy and congratulatory to say that wouldn't sound sarcastic coming from me, but please be assured that, if I knew how to say it, I would :-)

cool. i have to do this in 5 days and 16 hours so it is reassuring to see that it CAN work out well (and have only had to threaten litigation with one of our catering/vendor people, so far :)

Congrats to you both! Have a great honeymoon!
