#6 Be in a Friend's Wedding - Done

Travis called this goal cheating since I already knew that it would happen. But there isn't anything wrong with a few easily-attainable goals, is there? Plus, it is a such a special and memorable experience to be in a friend's wedding. Here is the friend:
Maranda and I have been friends since we were in 6th grade and we had every single class together at DeWitt Middle School. We have been inseparable since then and have made more memories than I could ever remember. She is the most genuine and caring person I know and always knows how to have a good time. She is a dedicated friend and truly the most self-less person I know. Here is the boy:
They met freshman year of college at MSU and were good friends but didn't start dating until a year ago. Though I don't know Doug well, I know that he makes my friend happy and that he treats her well - and what more could I ask for? He really is a stand-up guy and I'm so happy Maranda found him. Through a very strange series of connections we share a lot of the same high school and college friends - which means I was beyond excited for the wedding weekend!
The wedding was at a cute bed & breakfast in DeWitt called Rosewood Inn, which is just stunning. Both the ceremony and reception were outdoors and the weather couldn't have been more perfect. Maranda looked amazing and was way calmer than I was on my wedding day (and everyone said that I was calm!)
Here's to the newlyweds - who are moving to China in less than a month!
