Hello dear friends!
We're in the final planning stages before the big day next Saturday and we can't wait to celebrate our festivities with you.
First a bit of news: as many of you may already know, Kai decided to cut short his project in Detroit and came back to Munich earlier than expected. However, his means didn't necessarily justify the ends - he tore his calf muscle playing tennis. He was on his way to a possible crutch-free wedding; but alas, because of a wet garage floor (and No, not because of attending Oktoberfest : ), he unfortunately caused some more damage and so the crutches are guaranteed to be part of the wedding...and the honeymoon is postponed until December
...but the wedding and the PARTY will go on!! Below is the schedule of events:
