Weddings, weddings, come get your weddings !! LOL. Had 2 in the past 2 weeks. First one, last Saturday up at the Grandstand. It went really well for it being a half mormon one and apparently the families don't like one another. It was a small gathering too but was ok. 2nd one, I'll discuss in a bit. Monday at Essies was fun as the Earl's staff came in later on for their staff party. Always a hoot with those guys as they know how to party it up !!
Now for the 2nd wedding. It was Tanya's, down at Pavan Park. The ceremony was a clusterfuck to say the least. I got set up on time and ready to go but most of the guests were late and the ceremony, which was supposed to start at 1 PM, was now behind schedule. When they arrived, via horse and carriage, they decided to take pictures there and then. Meanwhile the guests, who were seated by this time, waited patiently for them to do their entrance. FINALLY, they walked down the aisle. But it wasn't the traditional way, they did it to Chris Brown's Forever. There's a Youtube video of the same thing. However, instead of each person going down individually, and doing a crazy dance, it was more like everyone rush the stage type of deal. So instead of having the song last oh 2-3 minutes, it lasted only 20-30 secs.
Part 2: Supper. Again a bit of confusion as to what to do for their entrance. But the picnic tables looked awesome. Also instead of serving food right away, they went around to each tables and took pictures and said their thank yous then. Backwards again ! But the food was phenomenal. It was prepared by the Guesthouse and also featured Steak, Lobster (which the bride purchased from the west coast), Baked potato or potato salad, garlic toast, mushrooms and 4 different types of salad. Tremendous. Brad, my assistant, didn't finish all of his steak, and I finished all of it, barely. Then we had the dance portion of the night which went quite good too. So overall, it was a grand affair. 2 more days of work then I leave on Saturday to pick up Taia and head to the mountains for 3-4 days of camping. It'll be nice to get away.
