Greg Baugues and Rachel Lazelle Got Married

Rachel’s only regret of our wedding day seems to be that she was so full after eating the four courses Rene prepared for us (pics to come) that she only had a single slice of wedding cake.

Rene’s original idea was to make a chocolate cake called The Opera which features five layers of different types of chocolates.  When he heard Rachel wasn’t fond of chocolate cakes, he decided to do the same thing, but with fruit instead.

The result was a cake with layers of cherries, raspberries, apples, blue berries and strawberries covered in butter cream.  Rene said it was the best cake he’s ever made.  It was certainly the best cake I’ve ever eaten.

The twelve of us drove straight from the airport to Pike’s Place Market.  Rachel and I got caught up at rental car counter so everyone else went on ahead.  Before Rachel and I even made it to the market Rene sent me a text saying that he had “set a new high score at the produce stand.”

The market makes for a great place for pictures.  So many colors.  Devin did a great job of capturing the action.

Oh, umm, hi there.

Boy, this is embarrasing. I kind of forgot to tell you guys… Rachel and I got married.

Two months ago.

I’ve been putting off posting because, well… it’s a bit overwhelming to try write a post about the biggest day of your life.  So, I’m just going to post some pictures instead, and maybe I’ll tell y’all the story at another time.
