We (Eric, I and both moms) left for Yosemite Thursday morning. We had a meeting with a banquet manager around 3 pm to discuss the details about our reception and then we assembled and prepared various pieces for our reception decoration. At 6 pm we went to Curry village for pizza dinner and met up with other guests who arrived earlier (Karen, Roger, Elaine, Jeanette, Jamsheed, Laurie, Geoffrey and David).
On Saturday morning we went for breakfast at Yosemite lodge and then we had till 1 pm to get ready. The wedding dress and Eric's shirt needed little bit of ironing which my mom took care off. The longest part took my hair, I did it by myself with Eric's help. Around 12:30 David came and started to take photos of us getting ready in our final stage. We met everybody around 1:30 by Yosemite lodge reception. Bus took us first to Tunnel view where we stopped for photos and then to Glacier point. We arrived a little bit earlier then we had our ceremony permit, so we had time to relax in the bus for a while. Ceremony was at the Glacier point amphitheater, our friend Josh was our officiant, and friend Phil played on his guitar for our ceremony. Eric's aunt Elaine and my friend Amy perform readings. After we read our vows and said our "I do" we took a lot of photos with just us and everybody. We were warned about possible bad summer traffic to the Yosemite valley, so we left about 1 hour earlier then we planned. Traffic wasn't bad at all and we arrived early for our reception. This way people had time to refresh and relax a little bit.
We started our reception by two Czech wedding traditions - broken plate that Eric and I together cleaned up and vodka/water shots. After dinner, David took us for evening photo session in the valley. When we got back we cut our wedding cake and had our first dance. Then we just enjoyed the end of great day with all our family and friends.

Eric, ja a obe maminky jsme vyrazili do Yosemite ve ctvrtek rano. Meli jsme schuzku s manazerem hostin kolem 15h abychom probrali detaili nasi oslavy a pak jsme dali dohromady ruzne casti naseho ozdobeni pro hostinu. V 18 h jsme jeli na pizzu do Curry village, kde jsme se potkali s dalsimi hosty, kteri prijeli drive (Karen, Roger, Elaine, Jeanette, Jamsheed, Laurie, Geoffrey and David).
V sobotu rano jsem sli na snidani do Yosemite lodge a pak jsme meli asi do 13 h cas na pripravu. Svatebni saty a Ericova kosile potrebovaly trochu prezehlit o coz se postarala moje maminka. Nejdelsi dobu zabrala priprava ucesu, cesala jsem se sama s Ericovou pomoci. Kolem 12:30 prisel David a zacal fotit nasi pripravu v konecne fazi. S vsemi ostatnimi hosty jsme se potkali v 13:30 h u recepce v Yosemite lodge. Autobusem jsme nejdrive jeli k Tunnel view, kde jsem se zatavili na foceni a pak na Glacier point. Prijeli jsme o neco drive nez nam zacinalo povoleni na obrad a tak jsme meli cas na maly odpocinek v autobuse. Obrad byl v amfiteatru na Glacier point, nas kamarad Josh byl nas oddavajici a kamarad Phil nam hral na kytaru pri obradu. Ericova teta Elaine a kamaradka Amy nam precetli neco. Pote co jsem si rekli sve slibi a sve "Ano" nastalo foceni mnoha fotek jen s nami a pak s nasimi hosty. Byli jsme varovani pred moznymi zacpami na silnici z duvodu letniho zvyseneho provozu a tak jsem odjeli asi o hodinu drive nez jsme puvodne planovali. Silnice byli ale volne a tak jsem prijeli drive na nasi hostinu. Hoste meli alespon cas si trochu odpocinout a pripravit se na dalsi cast.
Nasi hostinu jsme zacali dvema ceskymi tradicemi - rozbitym talirem pro stesti, ktery jsme museli s Ericem sami uklidit a pak vodka/voda panakem. Po veceri nas David vzal do udoli na vecerni foceni. Kdyz jsme se vratili nakrojili jsme nas dort a poprve zatancovali. Pak jsme si jen uzivali konec uzasneho dne s rodinou a kamarady.
