| A very original wedding.
|
I attended my sweetie's friend's wedding tonight. It was strange that they had the wedding on a weekday, but it made so much sense when I finally got to see the invitation card where it stated 'it is the eve of our 9th anniversary... ' ;) Wow... I can't believe that they weren't married, after being together for 9 years... (and I think they were engaged for the latter 3 years... ;) Since it was held on a weekday, it was at night... at a park, overlooking the lake. Yup, it was an outside wedding... with candles and all. Too bad it was really windy and it kept on blowing out the candle! It was a very small wedding, maybe 50+ people attending... and not as formal. The groom was in a suit & tie (though there was a long story behind the tie!) and the bride was in... a kimono! A traditional Japanese wear... it was really neat. :) She had origami (japanese paper folding) flowers in her hair, and all her bouquets were origami flowers, too! It was a little chilly, but the wedding was great. :) They were married by a minister that everybody thought was KFC's Colonel Sanders... ;)
The cake that they had after the wedding was also decorated with origami flowers, and hello kitty. The bride didn't end up throwing the bouquet, but I wouldn't, either, if it was such a nice bouquet of fragile origami flowers... ;) All in all, it was a very original wedding. I am glad I had the opportunity to go... :)
