I knew it would be fun. I knew I’d enjoy Jamaica. And I knew that it would be meaningful to witness Candace and Jay get married.

But somehow the #BlewishWedding exceeded even my high expectations.

We jumped off cliffs and a high bridge at the awesome Rockhouse Hotel. We swam in the gorgeous saltwater pool.

We visited untouristed Fenton’s Falls thanks to the relationships of Candace and Jay’s friend (and wedding officiant) Peter.

And yes, my clumsy self fell on my behind a few times. It was raining and the grass was slippery, OK?

We got a strange sex education talk. We laughed, and ate, and drank.

We made new friendships and celebrated love.

Thanks for inviting me to be a part of it, Candace and Jay.
