Around 2 we headed back to the hotel to get ready for the wedding.. (which for me meant a nap !) \u00a0
We Uber’ed out to the wedding venue which was a really nice space.. I think it was an old office\/warehouse.. but it had been renovated to make it a really beautiful party venue

Amazingly, we were some of the first to arrive\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

they had ploroid-ish cameras around.. and were collecting photos for a book. Here’s our contribution<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

After some mingling and champagne, we all went outside for the wedding<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The wedding was short and sweet..(with no pictures allowed)
\u00a0One of Jotir’s close friends officiated and did a great job.. \u00a0 Hannah and Jotir exchanged vows they’d written themselves.. and they were \u00a0really beautiful and had the fun and playful spirit that both of them have.\u00a0

And like that.. they were Mr and Mrs Short !

Afterward’s \u00a0There was time for lots of \u00a0family and friend pics<\/p>\n\n\n\n
