2007-05-19 John & Nicole Wedding - National Hotel, South Beach, Miami, Florida

Here comes the rain again. Nothing could drown out the feelings of love at John & Nicole's wedding. The National is a beautiful classic styled hotel. One of the great features is the pool and the surrounding area. The ceremony was sheduled to start at 8pm and be performed right next to the famous pool. The guests were seated quickly as a dark cloud loomed overhead. The smiles on the faces of the guests, bridal party and the bride and groom brightened up the day. The ceremony was cut short and we all went for the cocktail area. This was, thankfully, under cover. John and nicole picked out some of the cooler new tunes from the likes of John Mayer, Dave Mattews and Jack Johnson. They also threw in some of the crooners like Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin. The rain cleared and we went back to the pool area for a formal buffett dinner. The rain drops fell on our heads again. We ducked for cover at the pool bar. We were all togther so it was a good time for the best man and matron of honor to make their speeches. They were so hearfelt, sweet and well prepared. I like that. The rain cleared once again and I instructed the folks to make their way to the buffett. Love songs were played through the dinner time. Quite a few of the family and friends felt the urge to groove. they dance around the pool area. After dinner, it was time once again to go back to the main part of the National Hotel in the banquet room. I had the dance tunes ready to go. The partygoers came to shake it... And shake it, they did! The party went on until 12:45 am. It was a goody. John & Nicole are married. Yeah babies!
