Well, it would have been nice to be at chanaleh and Justin's wedding, but Lis's cousin was getting married the same day. As it turned out, we spent a wedding with a wonderful group of people, too, so I can't be too upset.

The short version:

• Lis's cousin managed to find an amazing spouse.
  
• Who has an equally amazing family.
  
• Who is a professional event planner who worked with the Superbowl for many years and has contacts in the hotel and event business.
  
• Who pulled in favors to get an AMAZING deal with a resort hotel to get us rates low enough that we could all go to a wedding at a resort hotel.
  
• Resort hotels are kinda awesome.
  
• Resort hotels in the Sonoma desert of Arizona are awesome.
  
• The Sonoma desert of Arizona has a lot of really cool flora and fauna.
  
• Many examples of which live on the grounds of the resort.
  
• An outdoor black tie wedding in Arizona in August SEEMS like a bad idea, but, if you can manage perfect weather like that, and make it so that it's not so hot that black tie is even uncomfortable, it can work.
  
• Jdate actually worked to find Lis's cousin a spouse who is a mensch, smart, kind, successful, decent, and attractive, and has a family of similar qualifications.
