The wedding was set outdoors in a gorgeous setting. The wedding involved some 80 to 100 people.
We started the music and people slowly began to enjoy and migrate to the dance floor. Eventually, the floor was packed as they rocked out with us. The joy on the families' faces was obvious and we knew we had fulfilled our purpose to provide them with a wonderful experience.
It really is more blessed to give than to receive, and we gave our best and to see the joy of the participants was quite something.
Funny thing that happened was the cake fell at the end of the night... also, during our packing up, the generator went out twice. But, the good news was, we had power throughout our playing and the cake was effectively served prior to its falling.
We hung out with the groom's family back at the hotel. A fantastic, warm, sharing family that were so generous with their items. We felt like family as we hung out with them.
I (Marino) got hungry and took a walk and got a chimichanga. <-- A deep fried burrito. A mild evening with a temperature of around 75 degrees. Then, a great jacuzzi and swim at the end of the night. Fernando, Sabrina and I hung out.
The next day, Tony calls my room at 8:30 am and says, "What room you in?". Crazy question huh? Anyway, he left with his family shortly thereafter, and the rest of us ate at a wonderful restaurant of Fernando's picking. A rustic place where we feasted on Brisket, btw, I like to spell it incorrectly. BrisQUETTE. The band continues to make fun of me for this and I will survive these wounds.
After this wonderful meal, we left for Dallas. SAFELY, we all made it back.
