Weddings

We were out of town to a wedding this weekend. How wonderful and beautiful everyone and everything was. The bride made lovely choices. Her attendants wore red (deep but fire engine red). The flowers tied together several colors including lavender and peach.

The reception was in a local country club near the church. It appeared to be a fairly new club. The reception room was tastefully though boringly decorated in beige and cream. Best to show off whatever the event was without upstaging anything.

The meal was delightful. The tables were set with tall pedestal floral displays. The DJ was ok - too much of a showman at times. Everyone danced. In fact, they were going strong when we left about 10:45pm.

The couple did not have party favors like plastic bells or specialty chocolates but they had made a donation to a literacy charity instead. I applaud that! Why pay for imported goods when the cost can be used to make a difference in lives. The bride is a teacher. The choice of charities was perfect.

I know weddings are big big business but how wonderful an evening. I think weddings are romantic. I am glad we were included.

'til later
