Brian and I really enjoyed our trip to Quebec for Laura and Matt's wedding. Quebec City was absolutely gorgeous and very European in look and feel. The city was actually celebrating its 400th anniversary, so there were tons of people celebrating this as well as the weekend nuptuals.
If you don't know Laura and Matt, you may be wondering why they chose Quebec City. After all, she's from Charlotte, he's from Florida, they live in DC and neither has visited there before. We were wondering for a while, too! But once we arrived, it was clear that this was the perfect destination for their wedding, and it was so exciting to visit somewhere we'd never been before with one of my closest friends, her soon-to-be (and now-)hubby, and their other buds.
Highlights of the trip include: the wedding (obviously!), gorgeous architecture, drinks at Le Chateau Frontenac (the Fairmont there), remarkably clean streets, riding up the Funiculare (big elevator up to the Upper City), the 400th anniversary celebration, remebering to bring my new trench, awesome scenery, the rehearsal dinner in the local pub, playing pool at Linox, three showerheads, beautiful weather on their wedding day, and the fact that everyone spoke English and they were actually friendly about it.
Enjoy the photos!

Walking through the streets of Quebec City before riding up Le Funiculaire. See the giant elevator in the background?
The streets are decorated for the 400th anniversary. How festive (and clean)!
This fountain is in front of the Quebec Parliament building.
The official gates to the city.
This one is for the Watts.
Erin, Laura, Lauren and me out in the rain.
Here we are at the rehearsal dinner. 
The beautiful view of the Saint Lawrence River from the balcony of Laura's bridal suite.

Such a lovely bride! Her dress was stunning.
Here are the newlyweds!
