We get to go to a wedding :-)

Pretty sure this will be our first one we'll attend since our own.

Its for one of DH's shipmates and is in Sept in WV.  That is literally all that I know.  Never met either half of the couple...nothing.

Am excited though...both for getting to go to one after we've BTDT and for an excuse to go to a state I've never been to.

Re: We get to go to a wedding :-)

  • Yay! That's fun. We've been to 2 already, it is definitely neat to be on the other side of things after you've gone through it yourself. Also you don't have to catch the bouquet anymore!!! : )

  • I love going to weddings now, they take on a while new meaning! Plus, I love when people tell me to catch the bouquet and I can say I'm already hitched
  • Ditto mb&d. We've been to 2 (one in Michigan and one in New York) since last June and it was so nice to not have to deal with the stress of it being your own wedding. That and getting to eat wedding cake again. I really wish we could go to DH's friend's wedding in the Dominican Republic next month, but it's the week before my due date, so unfortunately that won't be happening. Hope you have fun!

    YES!  I hadn't even thought of that but now am even more psyched to go.  I absolutely loathed the bouquet part of weddings.

    We've been to a few, and this is my number 1 reason for loving weddings.  Something about wedding cake tastes better.

    It's nice to go to weddings now and not be critical their choices.  I can appreciate why they chose the things they did and marvel at how it all came out.

    This is how I am... I'm more appreciative of how much work goes into a wedding, how much it costs, etc.  However I think DH is more critical when people have typical weddings.  He'll say things like, "you did so much more work, they just bought everything" or "our wedding was way more personalized" which makes me feel good that he appreciates what I put into ours but I still feel kind of bad because it doesnt have to be done that way and I hope he doesnt ever say something to offend someone.

    I've been known to hide at the bar at that time of night.
