In May 2020, I was supposed to fly back to New York to take part in my best friend's wedding. It had been in the works for years, we were doing prep for the bachelor party, everything was going according to plan... and then, y'know, COVID hit and what was once a huge wedding had to be stopped at the last minute.
My friend still got married in a small ceremony with only immediate family in attendance, but it was still a bummer that they weren't able to have the big celebration that they had been planning. And that's a situation that a lot of people found themselves in over the past year. So why not let off a little steam and finally take the time to celebrate?
