The wedding was last night and it was beautiful. The weather was perfect and my only complaint was that the sun was in my eyes a little bit, but at least it wasn't too hot. Of course, the bride was beautiful and the groom was very handsome. The attendants dresses were lovely too, not at all the typical ugly bridesmaid's dress. Doug looked great in his tuxedo. He had an ear to ear grin during the whole ceremony. And it definitely was nice to be able to walk from the ceremony straight into the reception. The reception was beautiful. For centerpieces they used tall vases with white calla lilies on top of mirrored tiles with two votives sitting on the mirror. Such a beautiful, simple and elegant look. And their favor was petit fours in clear boxes with ribbon and their monogram on top. The cake was gorgeous. It had white chocolate shavings all over it and it looked like the cake was covered in white flower petals. And they had the neatest cake topper it was a "W" for their new last name. The cake was delicious too. All the reception food was wonderful. I don't think I've ever been to a reception where there was so much food and drink. There was literally something for everyone to eat. I think I should have eaten more because I'm still feeling pretty tipsy this morning. Damn that open bar! I guess that's what 4 glasses of wine will do to a person. :) The reception was alot of fun. Although for me, nothing will top Desire's wedding reception. I know we all had the best time that night. I got a couple of dances out of Doug and I made his soon-to-be divorced friend dance with me a couple of times, so I got plenty of dancing in. We all had fun.
Of course, the question of the hour: "So are you next??" Seriously, that got kind of old, but I was thinking about it quite a bit. Especially since my conversation with Doug's aunt. It would truly have to be a small wedding, if it were at her house. Just family and close friends. Then I think we could have a big reception. I think we'd hav to par down our attendants too. It would just look silly. Or maybe it wouldn't. I just wouldn't want to hurt anyone's feelings. I was thinking if I did that though, you'd have to be my attendant because without you (& Josh), there wouldn't even be a wedding. And even though I couldn't have the rest of them up there with me, I'd like for them to be honorary attendants. Maybe wearing dresses in the wedding colors and having corsages. I would want them to feel included, you know? Maybe I'm just being silly. I shouldn't be thinking about all of this anyway. I'll probably just end up disappointed again.
