Pretty sure BIL is having a hilbilly wedding...

Apparently H and I aren't getting an official wedding invite because H is in the wedding and therefore we don't need one. We were however invited to the wedding via Facebook Hmm

Also - I think it might be a BBQ reception with a cash bar (I can't drink - but I do think H gets to drink for free since he's the best man). I kid you not.

These are signs of a hillbilly wedding? yes? 

Re: Pretty sure BIL is having a hilbilly wedding...

  • Are there overalls involved?

    Or camo?

    Plaid?

    Is this the arch?

    Will there be cake?

    Guns?

  • The no invitation/Facebook thing is odd.  The BBQ is not my style but I don't mind it.  Cash bar is tacky in my opinion especially if it is only a cash bar for some people.  At the very least this borders on a hillbilly wedding.
  • If the play country music on a home stereo set up at the reception. Then yes it is a hillbilly wedding.

  • Hey at least you aren't being asked to make the ribs for the reception. ;) 
  • The important question is:

    Are there going to be actual chairs, or will they use hay bales for seating?

    I live in hillbilly country, where hay bales are not unheard of to be used.

     

    ETA: bails/bales. Whoops.

  • I love that your judgement of the Plaid? picture has nothing to do with the pregnant bride.  Or the dog.  Or the background.

    Tomato-tomahto. I don't think, I just type, and if a little red squiggle doesn't show up, I tend to not go back and re-read to make sure I used the right words. 

    If the point can still be understood, I consider it NBD. -shrug-

    There could in fact be overalls involved.  And Plaid.

    H's cousin had camo at her wedding. All the dresses and mens vests were in camo. 

    Thank God I'm making the cake....

    There could be bales - but I don't think so. The wedding/reception is at a church, so hopefully the church has chairs.

    Not yet at least.  I'm imagining a call the week before the wedding "So, you know how you are making the cake, what about some sides too and your husband makes the ribs, okay?"

    I feel like this might happen. She's having H's aunt make the food, and she just asked my MIL to make rolls because she doesn't like the aunts rolls. I think MIL said no - she doesn't have space to make 400 rolls...

    Honestly, I'm kinda surprised she's not asking everyone to bring a dish to pass...
