thank goodness for weddings. i know many of you that won't agree with me on this one, whether it was b/c your wedding was a pain in the ass, b/c you don't believe in the tradition of marriage, or you are tired of them. but, those of you that know me, know that i can be a little bit of a cheese-meister. however, you should also know i'm not married, have never been and i am a miserable bride's maid b/c i am not a wedding perfectionist in any way, shape or form. there are certain wedding traditions i cannot stand. for example, despite my mom's pleas, if i do get married some day i might wanna do it in a red dress.that being said, here are a few things i love about weddings. i love the vows that the couple say to each other, even if they didn't write them. it's just endearing to see two people speak to each other about private love in front of a crowd of people that love them. i also look forward to the speeches at the reception. i love that there is a usually at least one honest, heartfelt expression among these speeches. at the wedding i went to this weekend, one that struck me was the father of the groom telling his son how much his son had taught him. and most of all, i'm a big fan of the inter-generational dancing that goes on for hours. why can't we do that more often? and we can take our ouchy shoes off! fabulous.
thanks g and l, for a great wedding weekend and for cultivating such awesome relationships w/ your friends and family (and with each other of course) that made it possible to have such a loving event.
