• Wedding weekend

   Last week I was super nervous about doing the flowers for my friends' wedding.  It was the first time I was doing something for people who I really liked AND would be there.
  
  The Bridal Boquet

  
  Something blue (I painted corsage pins)

  
  Feathers, pearls and grass details

  Thankfully, everyone loved the bouquets, corsages and boutonnieres.  Once I made it to the wedding on time with my 3 friends in tow, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.  It had been a stressful day leading up to that.
  

  
  Flower girls are always so cute

  
  It was held at a Country Club in St. Augustine.  The location and venue were lovely and so was the weather.

  
  
  kiss the bride!

  
  the first dance

  
  cutting the cake...

  
  Me with the couple...
   
  The photos on my camera were pretty tame.  I'll have to steal some others to show you the real mood of the night-- drunken revelry.  It was a very fun wedding

  
  UF group photo

  
  and then just your typical shots of me drinking beer and dancing.... I guess I pretty much do that all the time, so nothing interesting to see here.

  
  CAKE!

  
  Buket and I are obviously a couple drinks deep by this point. 

  We went to an after party, but thank GOD no photo evidence. 

  **EDIT**  I stand corrected on the after-party shots:
  These are, of course, after I drunk dialed my Dad AND apparently lead a taxi full of people in a round of, "At Last" by Etta James.  I vow to never stop drinking.
  
  I didn't change out of my dress-- but I did switch to "dress" flops.  Way to keep it classy

  
  Nevermind.

  

  
  We had to wait for what seemed like an eternity to get a seat and get breakfast the next day.  Being hungover and sitting outside... there are better experiences than that.

  
  Then, we had some breach time though!  The wind was so crazy I was still picking sand off me on Tuesday.

  St. Augustine never gets old.  It's always beautiful and fun.  We had a great dinner and drove back Sunday night.... sigh.  WHAT a good weekend.

  ...and now it is time for another one.
