Let's hear it for New York....

Although the title of this post may seem a bit odd, there are certain songs that I associate with weddings. "I gotta feeling" reminds me of a July 2009 wedding, Frank Sinatra's "The way you look tonight" reminds me of an October 2006 wedding, and Jay-Z's "Empire State of Mind" reminds me of Alicia and Chris' big day.

Villa Woodbine is one of my favorite venues. Aside from the top-notch service you receive from Bill Hansen's staff, the site is elegant, classy, and intimate. When Alicia, a Miami native turned New Yorker, interviewed me for this event I was excited for the possibility of working at the Villa again.

This is the famous wedding where I fell in love with a Peruvian candy called "encanelados". From what I know, they cannot be found anywhere locally, so I see a trip to Lima in the near future. It's also the first time in a long time where I felt like I was watching Dancing with the Stars while the Bride and Groom shared their first dance. I was very impressed! Alicia and Chris, I loved being a part of your big day. Keep dancing...you looked great out there.
