Wedding Blitz

So here they are; signed, sealed, delivered…it was a grand affair. They are in Bora Bora as we speak; not too shabby a honeymoon destination. It was funny, here was this really nice, mini-extravaganza of a wedding, the two stars shining with inner and outer luminescence; an event totally focused on them with literally hundreds of eyes (if you count the dogs and chickens) glued to their every move and somehow they got through it with a high degree of polished aplomb. Who’d a thunk it?

Because of a logistical arrangement with the mother of the groom (my sis) I was one of the very few who actually saw them the following day and, oddly enough, they seemed like the same old couple that I knew before they got hitched. Unglamorous, unfettered by fancy accoutrements, sensibly dressed and calm as garden veggies. Their day in the firmament didn’t seem to have gone to their wedded heads in the least.

Anyway, bravo to thems that worked so hard to get it together for that one glorious day, perfect weather included, and bravo to the two of thems for carrying it off with no apparent stress and/or agita. If they suffered, it didn’t show. Congratulations dear nephew and welcome-to-our-hearts your spousal selection!

Oh, before I forget, yes the bride looked gorgeous in her white wedding dress but that bridesmaid (sister of the bride), in her incredible fall-color-coded gown, was cherce!
