Since June, I've been to a wedding in each month. I'm beginning to feel like a professional wedding guest and my closet is full of wedding attire.
Things I have learned:
- Always wear nice undies; because I will inevitably tuck my dress into my knickers.
- A kilt works on every man. Day or evening guest, it never looks out of place.
- The photographs take ages; so have food before leaving the house (or put a sandwich in a bag).
- Print out the directions and a map to the venue so if there are road works another route can be found.
- I probably could have made it as a professional dancer.
- My husband is rubbish at remembering to take photographs!
Some of the highlights were:
- Getting to know my cousin Lesley and catching up with relatives.
- The groom's epic speech and musical showmanship.
- Meeting a whole bunch of new people.
- Seeing an old friend truly happy and in his element.
Not so long ago it was mostly funerals, but perhaps soon it will be baby naming ceremonies? Hmm, do I need different dresses for that? ;)
