JS80 Congratulations and best wishes to you. Curious, where in Santa Monica (I had an office there for years, just moved it to Culver City). My wife and I got married in Marina Del Rey so sounds like we're neighbors (or at least used to be)

If it was anything like my bachelor party last week it should be a blast. It'll be the same, except replace 2 strippers with 75 girls haha...

It's very close to Santa Monica College. I work right near the Water Garden.
I actually just moved out of Palms (which is CC adjacent).

A $4k bar tab. My entire wedding cost a bit under $4k. The reception at a restaurant overlooking Niagara Falls was $600.

Congrats....The night before I got married my grandfather gave me some solid advice that I am now passing on to you.... "Marriage is a man made prison."

Wow, thanks gramps.
