Here is why I heart weddings so much:
1. Puttin On The Glam: Derek and I rarely get to get all fancied up together and it's always fun dress shopping!
2. Food: Good reception locations always have the best food. And then there's the cake.... yum.
3. Drink: There's nothing better than open bars A) when you're not pregnant and B) when you're with a group of friends and C) when the wedding is an Irish Catholic one. Let's just say there was a lot of shots and I drank one of Drew's pedialytes the next morning.
4. Dancing: Some of our friends are a bit crazy and there might or might not have been push-ups and semi-twerking going on at the wedding. And no mom, I didn't participate in any of that type. It's more fun to stand in a circle around our entertaining friends and cheer them on. Pretty sure the hubs and I haven't slow danced in forever and we especially enjoyed dancing to our wedding song: At Last by Etta James.
5. Uniqueness: Everyone wedding has their own personal touch. This wedding including the most amazing cathedral and a bag piper!
Can I just make attending weddings my professional hobby?
I get to work weddings frequently. But it is way more fun to just attend them.
ReplyDeleteI am going to a Catholic wedding this weekend! Looking forward to the friends, family, and let's be real, the open bar. Cheers!
ReplyDeleteI love attending weddings but I HATE working them, so stressful! Haha! So glad you guys could have a nice night out with friends.
ReplyDeleteWe went to a wedding last weekend, too! It was definitely unique (ceremony and reception took place in a bar/lounge in Atlanta), but you better believe this new mom took full advantage of the open bar and dance floor on her rare night out! I haven't had that much "adult" fun in quite some time--I forgot how much I loved weddings!
ReplyDeleteThe last few weddings I've gone too have been solo and it's so depressing haha.
ReplyDeleteI love your dress! And we have the same wedding song :)
ReplyDeleteNothing beats a good wedding and a good reception.
ReplyDeleteThat wedding looks GORGEOUS - holy cathedral! And, the reception sounds top notch - cheers to open bars.
The pedialyte trick is genius! Well played.
Won't we all love to do just that! I love weddings for the same reasons Sarah. :-)
ReplyDeleteLove your dress!
ReplyDeleteLooks like fun! :)
ReplyDeleteGuests with awkward short dresses....LOL....
Definitely agree with all of this, love going to weddings!
ReplyDeleteI love love love going to weddings!!! So much fun. A little bummed we only had one to attend this year haha
ReplyDeleteI am a huge fan of weddings too. It's like a free date and it makes me reminisce about my own wedding day. Too bad it's been a loooong time since I've been to one.
ReplyDeleteOh wow! I love bagpipes. That wedding looked way more fun than any I have been too! Well Since I have only been to one wedding since I got married six years ago... Wow we need to get out more!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your dress!!! Where is it from?!
ReplyDelete1. Fab pic of you and the hubs!! 2. I'll admit, totally drank the pedialyte before too lol. 3. You could always become a professional wedding crasher :) glad you had a fun time and chance to kick back!
ReplyDeleteI agree I agree I agree. I was at a wedding a few weeks back and even though I was pregnant and very sober, I still enjoyed looking at the dress choices of some of these ladies. (If you need a napkin to cover your butt cheeks when sitting during dinner, your dress is probably a little too short....)
ReplyDeleteI love wedding cake. It seriously makes me so excited.
