Scrambling around on the farm before the ceremony, the only thing I was truly worried about, logistically, was the music. We had some great playlists, separated into "Dinner," "Cocktail Hour," "First Dances," etc, and we'd lined up a few people to man the laptop, but still... it all seemed like it could easily go wrong.

Here's a picture I took of Nick, trying to familiarize himself with Sarah's laptop, about an hour before the ceremony. Laptops are tricky with those little scroll pads at the bottom. Plus, he had the first shift, the toughest, queuing up the entrance music and the special dances.

He did a great job.

Later, after dinner turned to dancing, while trying to queue up a song to play next, he accidentally hit it to make it play immediately, cutting off the song that was playing. There were a few "Awww"s and "Booo"s.

Nick: And this older woman came up to me and stared right at me and said, "Sucky! Sucky! You cleared the dance floor."
Me: Oh man. Who was it?
Nick: I don't know. She was not happy.
Me: Maybe she thought you were a hired DJ and not just an overworked friend. Still...
Nick: It was intense. It took me a while to shake it off.
