Oops! I fell at the wedding ceremony

The passed Sunday was my cousin, Karen's wedding at their backyard. I was there helping a day before and the wedding day morning since it began at 5pm. On Saturday, my brother and I was decorating yard fence, the front door arch, and helping put up the light bulbs. I mean it doesn't look like a difficult chore to work on but it took us forever to just twist and fix the streamer. The wind was blowing the streamer in the air like an angry monster. Finally, we finished several things that we need to do and the house looked less messy comparing to the prior day. It was a sunny Sunday and we still had about 400 things to do before 5pm. Ok, I set up those 13 tables and 100 chairs in the yard then I ran in and out of the house doing this and that. Time was ticking and the bride had to stop at 2:30 pm no matter what she was working on because she had to get dress and have the make up done.

At 2pm, friends started to come and help out. I was kind of tired running in and out of the house putting up table clothe for 13 tables in the backyard again and again because of the wind...As for the food, there were about two tons of food ready to set up on the buffet table. I mean sashimi, shushi, lobster, beef roaster, rolls, sauted shrimp, pig feet (oh! yes gotta have this if you are wedding a chinese) and all kind of dishes. Not to mention about the three-level wedding cake. Any way, everybody was waiting by the wedding arch where the groom waits for the bride to come. The wedding music was having some king of problem because the DJ (groom's dad) couldn't find the song on computer. I ran out to ask the groom and yes I feel just right in front of everybody. Thank you the camera man who had gave the poor lady a hand.

The wedding went well. It was about 80 people show up at my cousin's backyard. Finally, they got married under families and friends' withness after they got married at the court two years ago.
