A Celebration!

After the beautiful wedding ceremony, we took the limo to The Venetian hotel for dinner. We made our way through the hotel and to Wolf Gang Pucks for a few drinks before our dinner reservations. We had such a nice visit and were all in such great moods after the day we had so far...it couldn't possibly get any better...and then we went to dinner!
Mom and Marc had made reservations at Delmnico and there simply isn't a better way to describe this dinner other than it was truly an "event." We knew it was a celebration, so we certainly didn't hold back. Steaks all around, with sides, drinks, desserts, etc. It was amazing and probably the best meal we have ever had. As the meal was being served, we each had our own waiter set the food in front of us so that it all came at the very same time. And, even better was that any time any of us got up to use the restroom, the waiter came to the table to refold your napkin and place it back on your lap. Really!? I have never been to a nicer place, and actually could get very used to a place like this! Although, we did feel a little out of our element, but nonetheless, enjoyed ourselves to the fullest and had the best time at dinner.
After dinner, we did a little more walking and went to the Bellagio to see the fountains and lights. What an amazing show! The evening kept getting better and better! I could have stood there all night just to keep watching because it was fascinating to see, but we had reservations to see a Cirque de Sol Lei show. We saw "O" which is the water show, and again it is truly hard to put into words how amazing it was. We had awesome seats, on the balcony, where it felt like we were the only people in the entire place. Again, we felt like we were being treated like royalty all day, which I truly feel was Mom and Marc's intent. This was truly the reason we were all there, this day, and they made sure it was unforgettable!!! The show was spectacular, and although Shane leaned over half way through it and said, I really don't get it, I thought it was great. So much to see, and you really never knew which direction to turn. Just as something big was happening center stage, all of a sudden, something else would happen out of the corner of your eye to catch and move your attention elsewhere. Awesome!!!
Well, after the show, I think we were all ready to head back and get some sleep. It was the most fun filled, wonderful day and even though we didn't want it to end, it was hard to stay awake any longer. Except of course for the long walk back home....where was the cab when you needed it. We finally made it back and crashed!!! The pictures of Day Three are listed below.
