Chas and I were married in February of 1998, in an evening wedding in his childhood home, with a very small group of close family and friends. It was important to us to keep it simple and casual and very "us"; I'm definitely not the Big White Wedding Dress type. So naturally I wore blue velvet.
I was down at the beach an hour and a half before the wedding, drinking coffee at Kaylani Coffee Company and watching the sun set. My hair was still a little damp as I stood before the judge. That's about as "me" as possible.
And then there was this.
Yeah, a church wedding was just not our style. More to the point, what church would agree to it?
Just about a perfect wedding! Only thing missing is a story about calves being castrated.
Oh, wait . . .

Looks like a perfectly good Maui wedding to me.

And this was an educational post. I didn't know there even WERE Valley Girl Rednecks, and sure didn't know they'd live in northern Leftafornia.

This is all very "you" as every wedding should be. Larry and I did the same--small wedding. We didn't do the teeth though, wish I would have thought of that!
