About Mrs. Piglet

It was time to celebrate the Piglet nuptials! Guests had four or so hours between the ceremony and reception to relax, sightsee, nap, etc. One of our friends even went surfing. By early evening, everyone began tricking in for cocktail hour. With the drinks flowing, and pupus (hors d’oeuvres) a plenty, oh yes, it was time to start the party.

Kalua pork buns anyone? Oysters maybe?

While this was going on, we were inside practicing our first dance. Look at our game faces. We were nervous! Our last dance lesson had been the week prior. And it was that lesson that we finally finished the choreography to our dance. We weren’t awful, but a lesson (or two or THREE) more wouldn’t have hurt.

Changsik, our MC, was reviewing the program for the evening. The man is good. His Korean and English both phenomenal, his presence in front of the crowd… amazing. He’s the go to guy within our circle of friends. So many of our family members came up to us after the wedding asking if he emceed professionally. He doesn’t, but he certainly has the skills to charge for this service!

Can I just say, I love that in the last picture you can see that he is wearing white socks…that is SO something my FI would do - which I would tease him about relentlessly for years to come. LOVE it! :)
