So this is Sam and Lana's FINAL wedding post. I promise. Not like you want it to end - I know. But I've got other posts too *grin* ...
Their reception? So lovely. It was held in a white, high pitched tent with simple parchment balls hovering over the tables ... There were grassy centre pieces and their "thank you" was a SNL button ... a few guests even sported it on their lapel for the evening *grin* ...
And the "tiki" bar ... did you get this? "Give to a good cause" with the sunshine logo? Would me you feel good to toss a few coins in the buckets while you cooled off, no? Yeah ... the SALBAHF was the "SamAndLanaBeerAndHoneymoonFund". A cause you could feel good about2 giving to for sure *grin* ...
Then there was the pie. Homemade pie ... courtesy of the Pie Lady. Well ... Pie Genius, is what I liked to call her ... a friend of Lana's made a pie buffet for the reception. It was incredible. Blueberry. Apple. Rhubarb. And the way they "named" their pies? Highly entertaining ...
... in true Vancouver-style ... because the Stanley Cup final was only a couple weeks earlier ...
... I thought they were genius ...
The reception was a casual gathering, with a burger BBQ, yummy salads ... lovely toasts and the cozy hum of conversations ...
The burgers were DIVINE. Thanks, Vera's Burger Shack for the pick-me-up ... and for making this wedding personal, home-felt and yummy ...
... the speeches were from the heart - and prepared *grin* ...
There wasn't an agenda ... no cake cutting, no "first dance" ... it was the reception that Sam and Lana really wanted. One with lots of laughter and a few happy tears *smile* ...
And the big finale? Launching t-shirts into the crowd with a t-shirt bazooka. Is that what it's called? If not, it should be ... it was impressive *GRIN* ... made me kinda wish I had thought of it for my own wedding *wink* ...
Sam, Lana ... wow. It was such a privilege to be included in such a fantastic celebration. But more than your day, it really was so lovely just to meet YOU. I just loved hanging with you and those you love ... I've never laughed so much at "work" *grin* - and this wedding will always be one of the very "special" ones.
Thank you for choosing me to be a part of your incredible day.
