My sister Cristina got married August 20, 2011. At first I was going to be the ring bearer. Then later on I had to do other special things in the wedding so then I got to become a groomsman. (By the way a groomsman is a special person who gets picked by the groom. There are also bridesmaids which are chosen by the bride.)
So I had to rent my tux, buy new shoes, buy a new tie, new socks, everything. After all that it leads to the wedding morning. Almost all of the bridesmaids came over to sleep at my family’s house. Cristina slept in her old bedroom. So trust me it was crazy with the only guys there being my dad, my dog, and me. We all had to wake up at 5:30 A.M. and there were ladies who came over to our house to do all the bridesmaids hair and my mom’s hair. But luckily my dad and I didn’t have to get our hair done so my dad and I just stayed in bed for a while. But later on we had to get dressed so we could leave. So once we got dressed, we left to go to the church. Also Cristina didn’t want everybody to see her wearing wedding dress so she left with her maid of honor. So the ceremony started and I had to go with my mom down to the front of the church and light a unity candle. Then the wedding officially started. And trust me it felt like forever so I’ll just skip to the part where the priest says “you may now kiss”. So then Cristina kissed her fiancé Justin and they officially became married. Justin became Cristina’s husband and Cristina became Justin’s wife.
Then the fun part happens at the reception. The reception is where everybody goes to a place and has food and talks, and there’s a dance party. The dance party was so awesome. My cousin Marcos and my two cousins from Texas Jordan and Dylan were there. So at first my cousins and I were trying to not have to dance. But my mom got Jordan on the dance floor, and then he liked it and kept dancing; so it was just Dylan, Marcos and me. They almost got Dylan when he was hiding under the table, but he got away. But I finally stepped up and starting dancing. I got Marcos to dance and we tried to get Dylan, but he just ran away from us. That dance party was so awesome! Also everybody was dancing like they were crazy and the food was so delicious. Finally everybody then had to leave so we all went home and I was so tired. All that dancing and all that standing drained me of all my energy. I just took a shower right when I got home and stayed in bed for what seemed like forever. While in bed I kept saying “I can’t believe my sister just got married”.
That day was one of my favorites and I will always remember it. I still can’t believe my sister got married; but anyways, I have two more sisters that are older than me so I have more weddings to look forward to!
