Sherri & Max Wedding

Mon Apr 06, 2009 5:33 pm



What's there to say about Sherri's wedding that hasn't been said? - Perhaps everything since nothing has been said. I'll make it short and promise to leave out 88.8% of the detail.

It was magical, beautiful, fascinating, small, warm, quaint, splendid, hearty, emotional, loving... it was well organized (thanks to Parish), creative (thanks to Kim), well-funded (thanks to Shifra)*... there was great unity; no fractions or awkward moments... everyone loved Sherri, everyone loved everyone and it showed. Max's parents (Shifra & Peter) and their life-time bests were some of the sweetest, kindest, talkative people we've ever met (dang - you'd-a thought they wuz from the South)... we're all emailing each other... gettn' all up in our facebook's. Also - The Say Anything guys were the same - kind-hearted, soft-spoken... genuine... loving... like Max (see pics).

There was hilarious laughter, wild dancing (compliments of Weston and Garron's taekwon-spaz dancing), the best tasting home-made cakes anyone could ever conceive of (all 9 baked by Stacy, icing and decorating - Kim/Parish), beauty, style, ambiance, joy unspeakable.

All in all it was a love fest... a grand celebration/reflection of the enormous love and affection Max and Sherri have for each other - which must have been enough to spill over on the rest of us. Can i just say that Sherri needed this and we are all very, very thankful. They're now in Paris enjoying coffee, shops, romance, architecture, European culture... whatever.

Well, more on band biz very, very soon. There are cool things to talk about... That's all for now.

* gross overlapping in areas of organization/creativity and labor... Smile Parish and Kim were a formidable force.

p.s. Note to any of the many close friends of the band - in Dallas, even in Tyler, and to the far reaches of the left coast - this was a small wedding. Sherri wanted to invite the many, the any... far and near, but costs associated were factors...Sherri wanted it to be small for many reasons. Please know - you are loved.

I was so sad I wasn't able to attend (had a sick little man) but Austin told me all about it. He also brought me home a plate of that delicious food - tell Kim that cake was out of this world scrumptious! So glad you posted pics - now I don't feel so "left out" ... what a beautiful wedding ~
