Happy Wedding Day
Saturday, September 16, 2006
In our travels, we went to two vastly different, yet gorgeously done weddings. After we came got back from Alaska, we went to Kevin and Kim's wedding in Seattle. Now the picture below is perhaps not the best view and honestly, I don't know that they want their picture on the blog, but this shot is actually about the green kissing ball. These flower balls, made from green kermit mums are my absolute favorite. Their ceremony was held on a grassy lawn and these lined the aisles beautifully. Had I been able to splurge on flowers at our wedding, I would have ordered dozens of these green balls. LOVE THEM.

The next wedding was for my MBFITW3 Joy and her husband Mark. It was held outdoors in front of the Island Inn in Monegan. Have I mentioned that you need to go there? No really, fly cross country and go, or drive, you will not be dissappointed. Did I mention the lobster strata at breakfast every morning? That alone is worth the plane fare.
Ok, back to the wedding. It was sweet, beautiful, and just so filled with Joy's personality. One woman on the island with an amazing flower garden, created all of the boquets for the entire group. Even David got a bout that we kept because the aroma of whatever plant she used was amazing. After Joy and Mark gave their vows, a whale spouted in the harbor behind them creating this magical aura over the event. Afterwards, we went inside the Inn and dined on Lobster, blueberry soup, and cake. It was a perfect week-end.

Congratulations to all the new brides.

I didn't hear about the whale, although Joy's mom mentioned that there were lots of omens that the stars were shining on them.
Back to reality now. Oh, and can you get some more flickr pictures up so we don't see you riding the weiner dog EVERY day. Roxy's afraid to open the blog at work if that's going to be staring at her.
I say we do a high school friend reunion at the island to take in all the whale watching and see Cathy's garden for ourselves!! Any takers?!
I agree Mark, as long as non-high school husbands are allowed as well. It was breathtaking.
Amy, in attempts to make my blog more family friendly, I will update flickr this weekend!
Mark, that sounds like THE best idea I have heard in a LONG time. I love it. Let's go.
