Ramirez Wedding

On Saturday, June 2nd, Nic and I drove down to Huntington Beach for my sorority sister, Ashley's, wedding. After watching Ashley and Andre exchange their vows we had a few hours to kill before the reception. So, Miri, Chris, Nic and I went to Rebecca and Jerret's place to have some wine and beer. We were all pretty hungry so the boys grabbed a few gourmet snacks from the liquor store and Rebecca whipped up an impressive spread. After a few hours of us girls chatting and the boys playing some drinking game with the neighbors and landing fabulous nicknames: Lilac, Cuffs, and Mormon (can you guess who is who?) we took a cab to the Hyatt Newport Beach for the reception.
At the coctail hour we scarffed down enjoyed delicious appetizers (the breaded lobster was my favorite) and drank more wine. I caught up with a friend, Katie, that I danced with as a kid, which was fun (She and Ashley went to highschool together in Palmdale, which is just north of Acton. She told Ashley to find the tall, blonde dancer and UCI because she knew me. Ashley laughed it off thinking the school was hugh, but we both had a good laugh when she realized she had found me at Tri Delta recruitment. Small world, huh?) While chowing down on all the delicious appys, we got to chat with the bride and Jerret and Nic created "the cognac club."

After cockatil hour we went into the gorgeous room to eat dinner, watch the first dance, listen to the toasts and then dance the night away. It sort of felt like we were back in college, joking around, dancing, drinking and it especially felt like college when we were taking Delta pictures and shots of tequila on the rocks. ;) *Sorry Ashley~we sort of broke your no shots rule* I think it was well worth it though, because what followed was Cognac Club impersonations of Tri Delts, the always succesful belting of Don't Stop Believen', and some crazy dancing!! The night was so fun in fact, that Jerret split his pants and I broke my shoe!
