September 7 in Philly

We are soon approaching the day of our reception or engagement party in Philadelphia. Mary and I are extremely excited about spending so much time with my friends and family. Unfortunately, the engagement party is during the season opener of the Philadelphia Eagles. We are going to have a good time. The party is planned out as of the following:

1:50 pm- Arrive at Pica's in Upper Darby here is the link for more information

2:00 pm- Pica's celebration begins-Welcome

2:30 pm- Prayer for the food and Eating time

2:30-3:00- Eating time and toasts from family members

3:00-5:30- Dancing

5:30-6:00- Cutting of the Cake

6:00-6:30- Departing Pica's because Mike and Mary need to be at the airport at 7:30

My Aunt Rose and Uncle Louie have put together all invitations, called all the right people and found an awesome cake and we can't wait to see how it all turns out. My uncle says, "When I am in charge of something, I do it right!" My Dad has been piecing this Engagement Party together for a long time and has hired a DJ for the Night.

Thankfully my brother did not choose the music for the night, but my cousin did! Mary and I are so excited to have a good time with the family in celebrating our future marriage. At the time of the reception we will be less than 28 days from being married!
We can't wait!
