Totally unrelated...but I now have Lefty Frizell "If You've Got the Money" playin' in my head...

I'll have the time...but almost certainly not the money. Especially as I need to save up for Entmoot II!

LOL -- I will ask you again as time gets nearer. When it gets to be about the time I make my reservations you should know more. You can ask Dona about it then.

I am already kinda swimming at the eclectic mix of people this will be... Not often that friends from different sectors of my life meet, and meet with family, and then two families! Will this be the first time I meet ecurbh's folks? - We still don't know if we are going to have money for a trip to Prescott between now and then!

You got lots of reasons for your head to be swimmin' right now. Kinda normal girl! All will be well. You know what I'd like to let ya know about the wedding itself? You are having the kind of wedding I like.... sorta like the one Dennis and I had (ours was lakeshore)... and the main thing I'd like for you is that you just have a wonderful time! Be with ecurbh, talk to EVERYONE, this is your day and don't let it get rushed through without your enjoying every second of it.

Okay, that was the voice of experience coming through there. I've had 4 weddings. I enjoyed ONE of them. The others I felt like I was somebody's puppet getting pushed through the proper motions.

The thing I know from Sonya's that I don't want is to have this big "picture taking" session before the wedding. She was nervous, hot sick and miserable for one (she hadn't eaten or slept for two days, I don't picture being that stressed).... but also because it took all the meaning out of the event. By the time they did their vows they had been posing together for two hours, as if the event was not about getting married, but about being photographed getting married.

Pictures will be during the event and a few posed shots afterwards, but mixed in with having a good day.

Good plan IMO!

Maybe I oughtta not talk about things with Dennis so much, but I thought we had a really cool wedding. We knew we didn't want any posing sessions either. We had a lot of friends who *really* love photography. We asked them all to bring a camera and offered to pay for their film and developing if they'd just take photos during the whole thing. (this was pre-digital of course) Turned out no one took us up on offers of payment but we got loads of really cool photos - both during the wedding and afterward.

Since he and I both had places of our own at that time and had lived together off and on for 4 years anyway there were no gifts that we needed. No need to register and all that stuff. So, we asked all our good friends to bring food - a potluck sorta like you said - cept we wanted picnic stuff, sammiches, chips, dips that sort of thing. My friend Martha volunteered to coordinate everyone's dishes so I didn't even have to mess with that. Martha knew who was bringing what and just did it. It was awesome!!!

We had cool wedding cakes too. Brides cake and grooms cake. Didn't even have to pay for those either! One of 'em I traded an old computer I had sittin' around for and Aunt Cheryl and Uncle Lynn bought the other as their wedding gift. Turned out our wedding cost nobody much of anything 'cept the cost of one batch of food to bring. And EVERYONE had a great time!
