We woke up at 9:30 on Sunday morning and drove in to town to pick up brunch and coffee. I had place an order on Friday afternoon at Pricechopper for bagel, pastry, and fruit platters. Across the street we picked up 9 boxes of Joe at Dunkin Donuts. At first, I tried to do it in the drive through, but they laughed at me. It ended up taking half an hour to get all of the coffee! I estimated 2 cups for every person, but we only ended up used 4 out of 9 boxes. Brunch was really relaxing. It was sad to say good bye to everyone, but it was nice to have the chance to hang out with people without a wedding going on.
At 1, I decided to motivate to clean up the tent, but when I got there it had been mostly done already by Vicki and my mother’s husband. That was a possibly the best wedding present we received. I gave away most of the decoration and pushed guests to bring home jars of rock candy. In the end I only took home the origami balloons, 2 jars, and 2 vases of pom pom flowers.
Most people left around one, with a few stranglers hanging around until 5 with whom we drank our left over beer. J and I went to have dinner in town at the Rattlesnake Cafe, which was super tasty. Back at HH, we ate left over cake and cupcakes. The next morning at 8am we packed up and drove back to DC.
