Well what can i say about saturday....well it was the most amazing day i've ever had, in more ways than one. That morning i wa so y nervous you'd have thought it was me that was gettin married! I suppose in a way i was edgy cos this was my First big social occasion.Anyway, i arrived at the church and stood waiting to go in when the best man( who i'd known for ages) came over and shook my hand, which put me right at ease. I ended up sitting with a few friends in the church...one even helped to pin my buttonhole on the lapel of my jacket. I''ll tell you this...the bride's dress was gorgeous and so it should have been for £1,000! The service was very well read...the vicar was a right hoot! We'd gone outside for the pics and the photographer took ages to get them all taken, he was a right fussy sod! Eventually got to reception about 1 pm, got a drink and sat down, to a few peeps..as you do at these things. I was made to feel welcome by just about everyone which was nice. As the afternoon wore on, i began to feel more & more tipsy due to the combination of champagne, & wine so i went home for a few hours to wash, re-do my makeup and change ready to go back in the evening. The pub was still packed when i got back so i grabbed a drink and sat down, waiting for my brother to turn up as he'd been invited too. I spent the evening nattering to him and various other peeps i knew. gone outside for some fresh air to find there was a barbie going on in the beer garden which meant one thing...FOOD!!. so i stayed there the rest of the night. Later on in the evening, some woman (obvoiusly ed) tried comin on to me so i told her at least 3 times i wasn't interested as i already have somebody i'm madly in love with ( don't i charllet!). then she got rather mouthy so i just ignored her!. I'd gone back outside for a bit to find my brother sat out there. now he's not normally one for expressing his feelings & emotions but he did that night. What he said completely knocked me for six...he said " i dont give a FK what people say about you and what you are.....you're like my sister and i love you no matter whHAT!!. As you can imagine, i had a lump in my throat & a tear in my eye after he said that!..by 11-30 i'd had enough.....out of 8 drinks i had, i only paid for 4..so how good was that...hicccc. so i got a Cab home. A lot more people had seen me for the first time that day and the reaction was just what i'd expected....one of surprise, but also one of being made welcome...like part of the family if you like!..You never know, the next time....it may be me that's getting married, now HOW many bridesmaids do i have............hehehe!
