Whole Bunch of Stasiaks

Mikey and Amelie’s wedding was one of the most intimate weddings that I’ve had the pleasure to attend. They found a little venue to say “I do” tucked away on a dirt road in Yucca Valley off Highway 62 and 247. With about 60 people in attendance, it was quaint and styled in the bohemian vibe that only they could pull off so effortlessly.

Rather than talk about the entire night in depth, I’ll list off some great moments and memories.

  • Hitting my face on the Joshua Tree cluster that was hanging in the middle of the aisle within 5 minutes of getting there.
  • Watching all the groomsmen duck under said Joshua Tree cluster during the wedding ceremony.
  • Mikey and Amelie kissing as soon as they got to the altar, only to be cut off by the officiant.
  • The officiant making Long Beach references and being generally great only to find out he was some random dude hired off of Yelp and not a personal friend of the party.
  • Mikey and Amelie’s make out sesh once the ceremony concluded.
  • Catching up with Taylor, an old friend from my elementary days.
  • Checking out Taylor’s van with Cory. (Check the vanity license plate in the photo)
  • Both Mikey and Amelie looking fucking amazing.
  • The incredibly spicy serrano pepper cocktail that I couldn’t handle.
  • Hanging out with my beautiful wife.
  • Watching Cory cry during the Mother/Son dance.
  • An epic first dance where I got some of my favorite photos.
  • Seeing Ian get sloshed and transform into Jake.
  • Watching Jake get wild on the dance floor and dance with Mikey’s mom.
  • Watching Mikey’s aunt’s checking out Jake’s moves.
  • Being stoked that there were 3 pregnant women at the wedding, which means that Logan is going to have more friends in the near future.
  • Bullshitting with Cory and Ian.

I’m so fortunate.

Buds.
The officiant definitely had Hannibal Buress vibes. I couldn’t tell if his outfit was ballin’ on a budget or high fashion. I was just happy he was willing to do this Jesus arms pose for me for no reason at all. He just went with it.

Happiest man on the planet. Eternally stoked.
Go see Cal. Go see Cal. Go see Cal.

Giving in and just going with it.
Fully embracing the moment.
Jake does not give a fuck what you think.

When you start dating someone long enough, eventually you’ll meet their group of friends. Since Caitlyn introduced me to her close circle I’ve never looked back. Every year Brett and Laura host a Friendsgiving as a way to get together and enjoy the holidays. Since I’ve been going, things have changed quite a bit. Of […]

Cory’s Catalina Bday

On 4 hours of sleep with a black coffee in my hand, Caitlyn and I pulled up to Catalina Landing for a fun filled day with the homies on the island. Having gone out the night before, every one else made it just in the nick of time. Except Zaqo Malo, his phone was off […]

The Boys Hit Big Bear

It’s so simple. In your 20’s, you’re indestructible. In your 30’s, you’re not. For President’s weekend, some of the boys headed up to Cory’s cabin for a quick trip up the mountain. With 2 of the 3 roads into Big Bear closed and the wettest winter we’ve seen in decades, the city was eerily empty […]
