last night i crashed my first wedding, and it was excellent. a wedding reception was going on at oakleigh (the property my parents own) and my mom encouraged me to come out after work and see it. so i threw on a dress and headed out. there ended up being people we knew out there and it was a great time hanging out. we got free wine, got invited to partake of the gourmet food, toasted the bride and groom, and did some dancing! an added benefit of my folks owning the place was the caterers gave most of the leftovers to us! although i must say the bridesmaids dresses- wow. terrifying. bright (and i'm talking neon) pink. very unflattering cut. and a terrible ruffle at the bottom- but not at the very bottom of the dress, about 2 inches up so it looked like it was pasted on. i've heard horror stories of bridesmaid dresses before, but never seen it in person....until now. i wish i had a picture but sadly left my camera in the car. if only i had known what was awaiting me!

Rule #76: No excuses, play like a champion.
It sounds to me like you lived up to the rules. Well done.
OH MY GOSH! I am soo jealous. We drove by and had a discussion on crashing. Good work!
nicely done, jenster. those dresses do sound pretty awful...i'm picturing 80's era barbie...does that sound about right?
