"Do białego rana" ("Until the pale of morning")   Sunday 15 August 2004  ][ Back ][ TOC ]

Wedding parties are supposed to last until the early hours of Sunday morning — or later. I was once at a wedding until after seven in the morning, and seven is not "the early hours."

Because it's a slide show, this page is over 400 kilobytes large. Please be patient. The pictures will begin rolling over automatically.

Really — it's worth the wait. As Kinga says, at four, the party really began blossoming.

Warto poczekać, to co się działo o 4 nad ranem to kwintesencja tego wesela.
Suggested soundtrack for the slideshow: Boston "Long Time" (without the "Foreplay" instrumental introduction — around 2:30 playing time, Dave).

The one thing everyone wishes for at their own wedding is that it, indeed, last as long as possible. This means of course that the guests are having such a good time that they'd rather stay than go sleep.

Our wedding, thanks to the wonderful, energetic guests we had, was just such a party.

I took the photos that make up the slide show at right at around four in the morning. The camera man had left; Marcin, the photographer, had left; the majority of the guests had left — but the party went on.

(View a rather special picture of Dave at 4 a.m. — password of sorts required)

We finally left some time after five. We were left with tired feet, buzzing brains, and a lot of people to thank.
