(Katherine) Today was Michelle's big day! We headed towards the northeast side of the island to The Chapel at Kaneohe Marine Corps Base, which was actually very difficult to find. We finally made our way to the chapel and saw another sorority sister of mine, Katie, with her husband Peter. The service was very nice – it was a mass, and although I'm not Catholic I have been to enough Catholic services to follow along pretty well and even mumble through the Lord's Prayer. Their reverend gave a great speech about marriage and also told some pretty cute jokes.
After the service, we all drove over to the reception at the Kaneohe Yacht Club which was about 2 miles away. It was a lovely venue which was decorated with Michelle's colors, coral and turquoise, which looked perfect in the beach setting. We appropriately sat at the “IU” table with Diana, Andy, Katie and Peter, along with another IU alum named Andy who was a member of the fraternity right next to my sorority at IU. It was fun to swap stories about Bloomington and have someone else try to explain to Robert some of our bizarre IU traditions (i.e. Sink the Bismark, one of our favorite drinking games.) It was a really fun reception and great to have our little IU reunion – it feels like no time has passed whenever I see my ZTA girls!
