Oh wow, the day finally arrived. It's quite funny how it all just crept up. We've been counting down to this date for awhile now. Jokes about dieting and all... and it hit me the day before that my sister was actually getting married. I felt an immense amount of excitement and also nervousness (good kind of nervousness) for her and Bob. Well, for those that know her very well, you'd know my sister is very particular about the details...the invites, the dress, the food, the flowers, her hair, her makeup, her dress, the material of her dress.... errr...wait, I think that's called being a "bridezilla". I even wanted to get her a Godzilla suit for her entrance into her reception...I wish I did! I still remember it was only yesterday she brought back samples of her invite. I made comments like "looks like a Westpac ad.... this one's too Thai Airways..." I can't seem to shake my day job.
The day went thru without a hitch. We were blessed with great weather (Ella's been checking the weather weeks leading up to the wedding), peonies were in season and we were all certainly excited to be part of this special day, as were our many international guests. It was a colourful event with lots of speeches, well wishes from those who couldn't make it (gotta love technology), dancing and of cos, FOOD.
Congratulations Bob, Shrek is all yours.... remember what Dom said at the reception: Safety first! Get yourself a safety helmut!
As they say in Swahili, P O N G U E Z I!
