Another week, another wedding! Our friends Grace and Cristian got married on Saturday, August 20th at the Waldorf Astoria in New York City. We traveled into the city with our friends Danna and Steve on Saturday morning, taking the Metro North from New Haven into Grand Central Station.
After checking into the Waldorf, we went down the street for lunch (a mere $20 per couple for a cheap lunch - ouch!). Man, was it delicious! Then, since we didn't know whether the wedding reception would be open bar - and the courtesy drinks in the room were ridiculously priced ($7 for a can of Budweiser) - we went on a hunt for a liquor store. We wandered all around and finally found one after about an hour and bought a few...um...items. Incidentally, we found out on Sunday that there was a liquor store right next to the restaurant where we ate lunch (sigh).
Anyway, the audio post below takes place after the liquor store hunt and before the wedding ceremony.
