Of Weddings and Best Men

This past weekend I had the honor of being the Best Man at my sister Crystal’s wedding. It was a beautiful wedding at Silverlake Winery in Zillah, WA. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a pretty spot like that, and it was definitely adequate for our relatively small 120 person party. Also, the wine was excellent. I enjoyed their Chenin Blanc most of the night, though I tried everything about twice, and ended up going home with some of their Reserve Chardonnay.

I had what I what I wanted to say for the speech typed up, so it wasn’t a whole lot of trouble to polish it off with a little bit of typesetting  and post it here. It received unianimously good feedback, and was a great moment for me. I feel a little bad, because I sorta feign unassuredness to hear how good it was again, but so far everyone seems pretty happy to oblige. On a distantly related note, I’d really like to get in the habit of speaking more often. I m ight look into Toastmasters when I get back from Brazil. Anyways, here’s a link to the speech: A Toast for Jared and Crystal Mathey
