“He gives large parties.”
“And I like large parties. They’re so intimate. At small parties there isn’t any privacy,” said Jordan Baker to Nick Carraway in The Great Gatsby.

There’s nothing like being in love, just the two of you, alone in the colorful crowd. Don’t take my word for it. Look at these wedding photos from Ultimate USA Weddings. You’ll see what I mean.
