| This October, Shawn and I found ourselves in Vegas to attend one of my best friend's wedding! It was Shannon, and she married Kevin, one of the nicest, fun and loving men that I know. Shawn and I were so excited to be there, not to mention, it's Vegas, Baby! | ||||
Small Image | Large Image Cheers! |

| It was difficult to wake up on Saturday, but with the lure of buffets and gambling, Shawn and I finally crawled out of bed and into the sunlight! Before the ceremony, I joined the ladies for some pampering at the spa in the Bellagio! | ||||

| The wedding itself was amazing! It took place on the breathtaking balcony of the Bellagio overlooking the fountain. Everybody looked great and were so excited for the happy couple. My favorite part was where the minister asked Kevin and Shannon to wait until the fountain went off to enjoy their first kiss as husband and wife. It was so romantic! | ||||
Small Image | Large Image Shawn is so handsome in a tie! |
Small Image | Large Image It's Dre! |

| The reception was immediately following the wedding at Fix. We had our own private party room, which was nice because the wine flowed freely! The food was spectacular, too! | ||||
