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 think the most incredible thing about the wedding was the eye contact between Sherri n Max. It was contagious. Like I said, or did I... there were no dry eyes when she walked out to Judy Garland's "Somewhere Over the Rainbow". I had to swallow my gulp or lose it. Seriously - their gazes have been fixed for a year now, but I saw it powerfully over the course of this engagement/wedding. No dime romance... no rent-a-wife story here. You'd have to know Max, his story... hers... them. True lerve ~ And now they're sending pics from them in Paris... Eiffel Tower out their hotel window. jeeze. I want some French coffee! Thanks for the loverly comments.

Bunches of comments. i don't have time to read even 1. Probably smack, haters, lovers, fighters and the likes. I notice it's listed as Say Anything News. So if Say Anything makes a post about the wedding, i guess it's Eisley News. ha ha. AP used to like eisley; i dunno what happened. Aww... guess Eisley can't be a punk band anymore. jk. They still are. Stacy is gett'n sleeves soon at the local tatt shop.

What wonderful pictures! Thank you for sharing. Everyone looks so happy, it seemed like it was an amazing start to an amazing life together!

And yeah, Eisley needs to punk it up a bit I guess. If Stacy is getting sleeves, Weston or Garron should get a back mural. Wink

For real though, thanks for sharing the good times!
