First wedding of the season - success!

The actual wedding was a rousing success! the bride was gorgeous, the bridesmaids beautiful, the groom dashing, and I stayed clear of the groomsmen. A great time!
The highlights - the actual ceremony was hitchfree as I think it should be...
the reception was in a great place - dark and well decorated
the food was appetizer type foods left out all night for snacking
the alcohol was plentiful and good....
the drunkest people earliest: 50+ woman in a full length dress (she may or may not have had a krispy kreme paper hat on at one point), a man we will call Blue Shirt and a man we will call Tight Brown.
pictures to come.

Wedding Day

today is the wedding. I haven't seen the bride since I departed about 3pm yesterday to get Brett and they were preparing to go to the rehearsal and dinner following.
Had a delightful dinner last night - no family, no wedding party, no psycho-ness. Just the satellites.
Then Brett and I tried to get drunk but it wasn't sticking...
so we decided to start before noon today.

We did the see the groom though in a random pass-by in the hotel lobby. he seemed calm.

should be exciting...

moving into Pre-game

Today is the day before the wedding:
1) started day with Krispy Kremes dropped off at the bride's house by the bride's father. So, I should crash from a sugar high in about an hour.
2) slept over at said bride's house after the "impromptu" bachellorette party last night. that party included
- eating bar food
- the bride wearing pink fuck me heels, a very low cut halter, and a penis candy necklace.
- going to the Blind Horse Saloon - where I won a 50 dollar gas card and everyone rode a mechanical bull. I rode in a skirt. the bride rode it 5 times!
- the bride puking and recovering
3) today we are going to a bridal luncheon. there is some stress about who is coming here to the house and who is meeting there and it is an hour before we need to leave and several people haven't showered yet. :)

wedding fun.

wedding one of four - pre-game

I am here in South Carolina for the first wedding of this season (for me). Right now we are in pre-pre-game mode. We are driving up to North Carolina for a family engagement party, then spa tomorrow, "impromptu" bachelorette party tomorrow night, then bridal luncheon on Friday, rehearsal dinner Friday night (or the equivalent dinner for me and other non family members), and then the wedding madness on Saturday. 
My role at this wedding of Loud's sister... basically personal attendant to the maid of honor (Loud). I am keeping her sane. I have no responsibility for the bride's, groom's or anyone else's sanity. 
I am also "the date" of Brett (the dashing fellow that was in my last blog photo, the one with the bourbon). 

note, the North Carolina party is in North Carolina, and we are still sitting here at the bride's house. I feel that we need to leave... like head out... except we are still sitting here. 
relax! everything is fine. :)
