this is how they do it in NEW ZEALAND


It was sweet to see that all the way across the other side of the world (we are in NZ) that like me, you and your readers doing whatever they wanted and not sticking to the previous wedding rules.

We had a 10min ceremony in an altar that was a heart of oranges, the bridesmaids picked their own dresses, one I didn't even know about until the day (she was 38 wks preg!!), there was no sit down formal dinner instead we had tapas created by family...I grew all the produce for the menu and my cousin slayed us a deer for the venison, my Dad caught the fish and crayfish....the whole day was all about the food, the drink and dancing....which we did to a blues band, complete with my mother in law lunging with her husband of 53 years to a strokes cover (magic)... following up with an impromptu drum and bass party at our house til 5am.

Best wedding ever.
