On May 17, 2008, Jake (aka Rachel) married her TN House Majority Leader (aka Gary Odom) in Belle Meade, Nashville.
Proof that I can't afford to live in Belle Meade:

Umm, no, that's ok, I'll just have my limo driver make a loop around the block.
Wedding details:
The dress - Oscar de la Renta
The rock - huge! I tried to take a picture, but the ring was so huge and sparkly that my camera had a hard time focusing...
How they met - Rachel was Gary's summer intern in 2005(?). Don't quote me on that, coulda been 2006.
The band - awesome! They had choreographed dance moves and everything!
For dinner they served filet mignon. Good try, but I think that's a difficult meal to serve to so many people at the same time and do it well. I still ate it though. You know me, never turn down a good hunk a meat.
At the end of the night, there were fireworks over the golf course which I'm sure the grounds crew was super excited about in the morning.
Some pics from the wedding
First, sober
Lake Ave. together again!

The happy couple
Well, that's the end of the sober pictures. The reception was insane! Bartender Kim boasted that she could make margaritas five different ways, and I saw this as a personal challenge to try them all. Alas, I only tried two, but they were damn good.
The bride and me
The bride and Katie - rumor has it (and from a good source I might add!) that there are several paintings of Rachel in the house.
I have no idea
Get 'em, Katie!
Patrick was a lucky man, he took three girls back to his hotel room.
Who's next!??
