Major plane probs caused me to arrive in New Orleans for Greg and Susan’s wedding 12 hours late, which meant that once I actually made it there last Friday morning, I was go go go. I’ll be recapping the ridiculously awesome wedding weekend day by day, starting here with day numero uno: I arrived at…
