Wedding Bells

But not at our house.

One of Caitlyn's best friends got married yesterday and my dear one and I were invited to the wedding.

Caitlyn and Katherine met in kindergarten and have been friends ever since.

The wedding,  though it did not come off without a hitch, (no pun intended) was lovely.  I think every bride and groom encounter something that is out of their control but Katherine and Jeremy had two things to deal with before the wedding even started.

The hairdressing took much longer than expected because one of the stylists did not show up for work. Caitlyn was still in the chair getting her hair done at 12:45 and the wedding was at 1:00.  Ack.

Katherine remained calm until they arrived at the church, 15 minutes late, to find that the florist had not delivered her flowers.  Double ack!

Never the less, she smiled all the way up the aisle to meet her teary-eyed, beaming groom and the ceremony was lovely!


The reception was held at the Fairlane Club and was very nicely done.

The groom is a chemist and, as I learned last night, a groom's cake is a new tradition at some weddings.
Well, Jeremy's mom went all out.  She made enough bite sized cup cakes to make the entire periodic table. Using color coded fondant she labeled each cupcake with an element's name and mass number.  Pretty sweet.

After the bridal dance, I got a peek at Katherine's blue high tops.  Nice!


My dear one and I danced a few dances and caught up with some old friends that we have not seen in a while. It was a nice evening out and there will likely be a few more like it in our future.
