I think it would be pretty awesome to have all the guests gather round in a circle with large, protective umbrellas. Talk about community involvement!
That's a nice image! We haven't decided what to do yet, but the umbrellas are being delivered to the venue. If nothing else, it will look very thoughtful as we hand them out to guests to use when crossing between buildings and marquee!
I had a massage. It has helped the stress somewhat. Now I just have to pack for tomorrow and write a speech. I do not know what to say. I will be too busy eating cake for speeches (and The Girl is too awesome for words. She's gone to the shops to buy a gazebo for the electric piano and a black umbrella for the priest. Our lives, they are odd).
ETA: I hope you get to feeling a bit better soon, Pix.
Oh Seska, I'm sorry. I meant to say best wishes and hang in there. So exciting (and stressful)!
No worries at all, Pix! We cross-posted/edited, but I wanted to wish you better. Thanks for the good wishes!
Having umbrellas is the surest way to fend off rain.
I believe the appropriate speech is: "The girl is too awesome for words. Let's eat cake."
That's really rather good.
Certainly addresses all the important points.
Deep breaths, Seska-- it'll all be good.
And Pix, all the ~ma in the world to you. Feel better and hopefully, today won't be too terrible.
I believe the appropriate speech is: "The girl is too awesome for words. Let's eat cake."
Precisely what I was going to advise.
Best wishes to Seska and The Girl!
Pix, I hope things ease up for you and you feel better. You know what we need to do? We need to run away to the spa for the day, and then ... maybe join the circus.
All Happy Wishes to Seska and The Girl!
Relief and rescue~ma to Pix.
