Man. You create such a detailed, finely crafted atmosphere in this (as you always do). Having been to an Italian wedding, I was grinning at all the food details. Love the urban ethnic dynamic you work into it as well.

Thank you! And if anything, both the wedding and the urban ethnic attitude are understated. (The last wedding I was at--a typical wedding of about 400 people--the Viennese hour was annouced by a procession of twelve waiters juggling flaming torches. No, I'm not kidding. The one before that--more than 400 people-- there was a course of whole lobsters. As appetizers.)
