A few days before the wedding, Kara and company came into Manhattan and we all met up for a nice italian meal over in Greenwich Village. ˆ amy a ˆ jess d ˆ kara ˆ

That's Amy Saks on the right (I forget both your names...doh. Email me if you can identify either of these crackers, kay?) ˆ amy s ˆ

Same thing here, that's Amy Albano on the left, but the other two? Doh! (Actually the dude in the photo's our waiter, so I guess it's no big deal that I don't remember him...but the girl in the red dress? Ann-something? Crap, I'm a bad person). ˆ amy a ˆ

Aha! I know all three names here! Kara, the bride to be, Little Brother Billy (who to this day insists it wasn't him that I saw on the MTV special I saw about "Real World Appliacant Rejects") and Amy Albano. ˆ amy a ˆ billy s ˆ kara ˆ

See? Look, two of them! ˆ abbey ˆ liam ˆ scott ˆ kids ˆ

Here's Liam. (He looks just like Scott, um, except with hair.) ˆ liam ˆ me ˆ tongue ˆ

And this little sweetpea is Abbey Rose...luckily, she's looking less and less like Scott everyday. ˆ abbey ˆ baby ˆ

Fast forward a few days to Saturday and we're actually in the church in Wharton, NJ. (Actually, this is the same church I ended up having to go to for Abbey's Christening. ˆ church ˆ

Billy sang a song with the band... ˆ billy s ˆ live band karaoke ˆ

Then I went up and sang "It Had To Be You." ˆ kara ˆ me ˆ tom r ˆ live band karaoke ˆ wedding ˆ

After all the singing, Billy and Amy cleared the dancefloor to perform a synchronized dance routine they'd been working on. ˆ amy s ˆ billy s ˆ best ˆ dance ˆ wedding ˆ

Which turned out to be the "Ross & Monica Geller" dance routine from "Friends." ˆ amy s ˆ billy s ˆ dance ˆ wedding ˆ

Right at the end of the night, after bugging the crap out of her, we finally convinced Kara (who has the voice of an angel) to go up and sing a ditty with the band. (And I can't remember what she sang either...See? This is why I've gotta be better about keeping on top of this diary shit! I end up forgetting all the details). ˆ kara ˆ live band karaoke ˆ wedding ˆ

Bonus points for capturing Mr. Saks in the foreground of this shot. Schweet! Congrats, Kara and Tom! ˆ kara ˆ best ˆ dance ˆ live band karaoke ˆ wedding ˆ
