French Wedding - 7.9.12

This morning we got up early, my dad returned the rental car, and we took a bus over to Thoiry, where we waited around for a little over an hour until many well-dressed French people started to show up at the town hall. We were all gathering for the wedding of Simon and Camille Cosentino. Simon and I were missionaries together a few years ago, and I happened to be in Europe during his wedding, so we thought we'd go. Of course, the whole thing was in French, but it was beautiful even without understanding the words. We all went into the town hall where many French words were spoken and a few oui's, then they signed a piece of paper with many more French words on it. Then we threw confetti at them and went over to the church, where many more French words were spoken. There were many yummy French hors d'oeuvres, which is the best kind of hors d'oeuvres. They're off to the temple in Switzerland tomorrow.
Now we're going to wash laundry, buy train tickets, and plan the rest of my parents' trip.
