This Knot is Tied!

Ladies and gentleman, may I present to you the new Mr and Mrs. Pomerantz!

We are safely back in Los Angeles after a spectacular wedding and a fantastic trip to Colombia. We ended up celebrating our vows in fine style with 100 of our closest friends (~40 of whom flew in from the USA).

As our guests discovered, Colombians really know how to throw a party! The two day extravangza featured carnival performers, an impromptu paso fino horse demonstration, an impromptu breakdancing demonstration, a salsa band that played about 3 hours beyond what they were paid to, an awesome Jennifer Lopez hand puppet, some great and hilarious toasts (with real time translation), a menagerie of exotic fruits, a rocket-themed cake ornament, a midnight mariachi serenade of the bride to be, and much more...

We're still waiting on the photos from our official photographer, but Will's dad has already uploaded some great ones from his camera (and there are many more to be found on Facebook). Click the photo below to find that album:



We can't say thank you enough to all of you for attending and/or sending your warm wishes and congratulations. Our hearts are bursting with all of the affection you've sent our way. But we've also got to spend extra special thanks to our parents (Eduardo, Jim, Patricia, and Sandra), our siblings (Drew, Lucho, Pipe, and Shäiel), Diana's bridesmaids (the two Andreas, Brooke, Leela, Lori, and Tiffany) Will's groomsmen (Carlos Augusto, Paul, Steven, and the aforementioned brothers), our flower girl (Maria Camila), our rosary bearer (Shäiel), our arras bearer (Nico), our translator (Cristian), and our wonderful family-friend-turned-wedding-planner-extraordinaire (Linda). None of this would have happened without you. THANK YOU!
