Nick and Susan Stepaniak’s Wedding Recap (Discourse Chronicle)

[Nick Stepaniak (my best friend of 15 years) married his long-time girlfriend and fiancee Susan MacLaughlin last weekend in Dallas, TX. Elizabeth and I attended their wedding with close friends Ted and Trina Weiland. I believe it was the best weekend of my life (so far). Here is a recap:

Day 1

  • I developed an appreciation for airport park and ride services.

  • We rented a Chevrolet HHR with Hertz for the first time.

  • I met a fellow Aggie (Texas A&M University student or graduate) for the first time.

  • All of us caught up with Nick and Susan at their infamous house located at the intersection of Bond St. and Lois Lane.

Day 2

  • We took full advantage of La Quinta Inn‘s complete complimentary breakfast

  • All of us spent the morning at the Dallas Museum of Art

  • All of us witnessed a small yet intimate Christian ceremony at the Dallas Arboretum

  • We reminisced with Nick’s parents about how I contributed to his conversion from the sciences to the humanities in college.

Despite many memorable moments being shared above, what made last weekend the best was all of our conversations happening throughout, especially while “geeking out”. Choice moments allowed for a seemingly endless supply of movie references and lines to enhance whatever situation all of us found ourselves in, whether stuck in traffic (“Use bumper! That’s what it’s for!”) or looking at a priceless gold chalice (“Choose wisely”). BK]

    Weddings are such a great way to spend time with people you haven’t seen in a while. I was in San Francisco last weekend for a friend’s wedding — it was a lot like this. Small, intimate…and FUN. 🙂

    Woohoo, I’m getting honorable mention. Great time, and the check is in the mail (sorry for taking so long). Want to thank you again for being the super awesome guy you are and driving. I must admit the discussion I had with nick’s brother was quite fun.

    Ted, D’oh! I’ll revise that so you and Trina get top billing as well. I do not mind driving in a big city, but I mind big city drivers, especially after my time living in Texas. Whoever heard of 75mph minimum on the Interstate and 40mph in city limits?
