Fashionably Late

I was just starting to question the timing of getting married in late September of my 34th year. It's a big wedding year, so many of our guests or potential guests have already hauled themselves across the country at least once for another couple's nuptials. This is in addition to the fact that most of our friends our age have very young children and/or are expecting babies this fall, making travel difficult if not completely out of the question. We're also getting married on a large river on the East Coast during hurricane season. My father just this summer finished the repairs to his dock that was ravaged by Hurricane Isobel a few years ago.

And then I saw the trailer for The Last Kiss, Zach Braff's Garden State-looking new film about weddings / coming-of-age that opens our wedding weekend. And I realized, we were just waiting until weddings were protrayed in soft-focus with a cool soundtrack, you know, to make them hip.
