Gino's cousin, Joe, married Jenn in Savannah, Georgia. They had a quaint wedding in the historic city, a reception there, then topped off the festivities with a 400 person reception in Baltimore the following weekend. Pictures of that will come later.
The picture above is the ceremony in Forsyth Park. Below, you can see the fountain which is the focal point of the picture-perfect park in the background.
Gino was the most handsome of the groomsmen, adorned with me, sporting the balloon hem by his side. The balloon hem, which is a poofy hem at the bottom of a dress, is gaining popularity in Japan and well-suited for the southern charm of Savannah.
I recommend Savannah as a perfect weekend destination. It is blessed with ancient oak trees dripping with spanish moss. Cobblestones follow along the river side where riverboats lazily meander through the water. Horse-drawn carriages show tourists around the historic district, with limited chain stores. A quaint outing for any occasion - especially a wedding!
The posh amneties made me think I was on a vacation away from the vacation that I was already on. The coolest part about the accomodation was it was in a renovated mansion, and the bathrooms had half-doors. So it seemed like you could bathe in the middle of your bedroom if you kept the doors open. (The chandelier in the background is in the bathroom.) Ah, the silly details of a blog, gotta love it.
