Yep...4 weddings and the last one was youngest dd June 25, 2005. Thank God I didn't have my heart attack before or during the wedding. I keep thinking about that it could have happened and explains a lot of things I was feeling then.
But it was a great wedding as well as the others but there was just something about the "baby" getting married. She made it so easy...the bridal party could wear any black dress they wanted as long as it wasn't strapless. Flowers were gerber daisies and all the grandchildren were in the wedding party and could wear any white dress they wanted. It was just so relaxed! Indoor New York wedding which means we are still paying it off but it was worth it. We used the caterers centerpieces...a hurricane lamp with a pillar candle and votives all around it. No one even noticed there were no flowers on the table except for rose petals strewn around which ended up being free. Since there were so many kids at the wedding, a friend brought a tub full of crafts and the caterer set up a craft table to keep them busy. So it was good for all. It was kind of wild since there were police officers there from NYPD and Suffolk County PD...the wedding was 2/3 rds friends/coworkers.
I will keep my fingers crossed that it is a beautiful day and glad you have an alternative plan. Then you won't need it.
