  • I am so glad your cousin said yes. Your going to be a pretty bride.

  • Congrats Boo.  Best wishes to you and the future missus.  Can't imagine why you wouldn't want Bakon at the wedding.  

  • The wedding plans are as good as final.  Pretty much all that's left to do now is walk down the aisle.   The only issue has been with inviting more people than we planned on initially.  Fift

You don't need to haul that across the Atlantic.  They sell them in Tennessee at a store called "Dollar General".

 

That's so awesome!  Best wishes to you both!

Weddings are overrated! 

(This message is brought to you by the father of 4 daughters...lol) 

 

This raises an interesting question.  I like my future father-in-law, he's a good man.

 

However, if he's on the hook to pick up the tab for this shindig would it not be a wasted opportunity to not go BIG?

 

I'm thinking kind of a cross between: royal wedding, Fourth of July party, and county fair.

And if you don't know where the Dollar General is around here, no problem.  Just drive in any direction and you are bound to see one.

 

Seriously, those stores are everywhere around here.

If you do county fair @Boo will there be rides and showbags and a jumping castle...instead of tossing the bouquet will there be a pie baking competition?... That would be an awesome theme for a wedding...

 

We don't have counties or county fares... Thinking they are like our Shows.

I like a Royal Wedding ...all that Pomp..and nonsense.... Maybe you will let me sit in ya coach with  you both ...and do that wave thing .!!!

I reckon I could carry this off !!!

 

What about one of those cowboy things ...Dossy Do....stuff......ya that would be fun...

That's it.  He does not need an event planner.  He has us ladies.  I'm liking all these suggestions especially the hats.  Doreen, yours was smashing.

OOH is that a barn dance or a square dance... isn't something about stripping widows though??? Oh nope, strip the willow....

So I reckon when Reci comes back from his latest adventure we could put all that Northern Ice to good use.... and make one of these for an awesome center piece...

Date's set: June 15.

 

Getting married at a spot right on the river.  Weather permitting, it will be an outdoor wedding.  This particular location came open unexpectedly due to a cancellation.  It was too good of an opportunity to pass up.  Things are moving fast now.

 

And for the record: Sugar Britches is still on board with this whole getting married thing.  So...it's starting to feel official.

Boy Boo, that is right around the corner.  I need more time to take off a few pounds and find an outfit.  

It sounds like it is all falling in place.  So excited for you.  

Sounds like a great place for a wedding. 

 

Not a lot of time so make sure you don't forget to savour every moment in the whirlwind ?

Feels like a whirlwind for sure.  Fortunately, we had already decided to go with a smaller ceremony.

 

We're still learning on the fly everything involved in putting together a wedding.  Even for a low-key event, there's a lot of moving parts involved.

As soon as you say wedding everything costs 4 times as much. 

 

I hope we'll get to see a photo of the lovely couple x
