Since writing my last post, I've become aware that both Lucas and Emilie have blogged (at length) about my wedding last weekend.
Lucas' post has its charms - I enjoyed the reprint of his speech - but Emilie's post is by far the better of the two, as it contains absolutely no snarky comments or allegations of totalitarian repression.
In fact I think it is worth reprinting a few short extracts from Emilie's post:
M was escorted through the gardens to the Chuppah by her parents.
Her dress was divine.
It was a golden cream sheath that had gold glass beading with thick straps.
The veil and the material of the Chuppah echoed each other.
It really was a golden experience.
The bride and groom were smiling and so was every single guest.
T and M are so different
She's a really out-doorsy engineer who'd traveled all over the world in a hardcore kind of a way and is really into things like sky-diving, rock climbing and black water kayaking
T is a Barrister, uber-educated gentle person who is into interesting things like Korean cinema.
He's a top guy.
And I love that they thrive on each other’s differences and are eager to learn, understand and experience each other’s passions.
They are a perfect human compliment.
What a great wedding!
T has restored my faith that not all Jewish boys in Melbourne are complete knobs!
In case anyone's curious, both Emilie and Lucas have included a few photos of the wedding.

what a top day
of the three weddings i've ever been to -
they've all been so different
but of all of them
i've never had such a buzz
the vibe in the air was totally electric
but aside from the mini-chuppah-chaos the day really was perfect
now ever day, as i drive home via the gardens on birdwood avenue
i always smile as i drive past the observatory
it's a place of happy memories
and now it always will be
but what a fabulous day!
i can't wait to see all three-and-a-half-billion pictures
yay for M & T
life is good
