Party! Party!

The professional photographer took over 900 photographs at V&M's wedding! There are a couple of them of me which are not bad. (Predictably, I dislike more than I like!)  But of the 950 photographs of the bride,  948 of them are rather gorgeous!  From the earliest part of the day, and getting dressed,  to dancing well into the night,  Yo was just beaming and happy and beautiful.

I want some of those pictures for sure!  She told me to wait until they gave me some, so I am trying to wait!  Meanwhile,  I find many interesting ones posted on Facebook by their friends who were in attendance.

The volume of the music was a bit loud for my taste,  but the band was targeted toward the 20 something generation.  Clearly, many of them had a great time partying and dancing.  At one point, all the Cornell grads were invited to gather on the dance floor for a picture.  There were probably forty of them there!   And looking at our children and their spouses, and adding it all up,  I discovered much to my surprise that we have seven of them in our own family!  Four are engineers---not to imply that this is somehow better than other areas of study....it's just that they think so!

It's interesting....looking at the photographs.   I got to see many details of things that I had missed that day, being pre-occupied with my own responsibilities and concerns.  For one thing,  the bridal bouquets were so unique and colorful and lovely.  Some of the things I remember seeing in the bouquets---artichoke, rosemary, thyme, white flowers, greenery.  

The bride chose "go green" gifts;  and used apples and moss and branches for centerpieces.  It was an event, for sure!
