I really wanted to wear a fascinator though, but wasn't willing to spend the incredible amount of money on a nice one.VioletSkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10222821877918680480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6759020785662372535.post-75920256770602967652010-06-08T13:11:14.126-04:002010-06-08T13:11:14.126-04:00Gus is adorable and he looks very handsome in his ...Gus is adorable and he looks very handsome in his attire. Weddings are always interesting events. I remember going to ones in England and wearing hats. Here in the US none that I have attended have and that's been fine with me. I always find out first because of my roots in the UK I suppose. Enjoyed visiting, thanks for stopping by mine.DeniseinVAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08494518513936310345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6759020785662372535.post-66607528530684519582010-06-08T08:43:42.375-04:002010-06-08T08:43:42.375-04:00I am certainly with you on making an effort for so...I am certainly with you on making an effort for something as special as a wedding. I mean, the bride and groom most likely spent a boatload of money on the event...at least give them the honor of wearing your "Sunday best". <br /><br />I wore a hat to a wedding just once and felt like an idiot because I was the only one. So, unless it says "ladies wear hats" on the invitation, it probably won't happen again. <br /><br />Doggie wearing tux = maximum cuteness!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14201860227400017841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6759020785662372535.post-39344050306475634092010-06-08T06:10:10.120-04:002010-06-08T06:10:10.120-04:00Gilly: he is actually the most docile dog (althoug...Gilly: he is actually the most docile dog (although, I don't have to live with him so he probably has a few moments...) my SIL takes perverse pleasure in putting costumes on her animals.<br />I'm glad to hear that your nephew's friends paid heed to traditions. really, it is only for a few hours one day.<br /><br />Jeannette: I'm glad I wasn't one of the wedding party wearing a tux on a beach - I'd probably feel quite overdressed. but I bet it was lovely.VioletSkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10222821877918680480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6759020785662372535.post-45346537043077642632010-06-08T04:54:02.593-04:002010-06-08T04:54:02.593-04:00Gus looks so cute!

No, NO, NO at any time except a holiday resort (or in your own garden!)<br /><br />Funerals over here tend to be decorous - not always black, but subdued colours, grey, mauve, navy blue. My lovely nephew's funeral a couple of years ago was bursting to the seams with younger people (he was only 40) and every one of them had made an effort with a suit, or dark clothes.<br /><br />I look appalling in hats and refuse to wear them. Except when I take the dog out in the pouring rain, when I have a big-brimmed khaki waterproof hat!Gillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00322140697547406511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6759020785662372535.post-18419607991405768072010-06-07T23:00:46.370-04:002010-06-07T23:00:46.370-04:00Geewits: yeah, I've been in two minds about wh...Geewits: yeah, I've been in two minds about whether to continue with the Monday AMuse... but I still think it is a fun way to begin the week.<br />Weddings are so exhausting to organize.<br /><br />Coffeeveggie Addict: I am not a dog person - but this little guy has pretty much made a convert out of me over the years!<br /><br />Sag: I somehow suspect he managed to get some treat (though the cake was at the reception later that night, so he missed out on that)<br /><br />SAW: hear that Geewits - get thee a bouncer!VioletSkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10222821877918680480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6759020785662372535.post-77235593635359488372010-06-07T21:12:43.500-04:002010-06-07T21:12:43.500-04:00This is why weddings need bouncers.This is why weddings need bouncers.secret agent womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03763879283931347382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6759020785662372535.post-67420365270978304902010-06-07T19:59:07.216-04:002010-06-07T19:59:07.216-04:00Cargo shorts? big no-no at the best of times I rec...Cargo shorts? big no-no at the best of times I reckon!!
