Yeah, I know, I said there would be pictures of the wedding. Blame Mr. Coffee hogging using my camera…again. Arrggghhh. Better late than never. So here’s proof…
The theme of the wedding was built around the quilt, pictured later, that the Bride’s grandmother made for her before she passed away. The quilt top was finished but the quilt was completed by family members the week before the wedding. Anyhoo… the colors of the quilt reminded them of a Peacock, so hence the wedding theme. The Bride is/was in Roller Derby and the Groom (my oldest son’s best friend) is a Wrencher.. an awesome Master Bike Mechanic… hence also the Bicycle themes. They both are also talented and accomplished artists. The Groom’s hat was designed and sewn by Moi. The most adorable flower girl ever is my granddaughter. The Best Man is my firstborn. Bride’s family is Scottish, hence the kilts. The band was a Queen coverband. Ok enough with the gab and hences, on with the pictures!

Oh my gosh, that is all fantastic! (I’m so glad I found your blog!)
I have a quilt top made by my grandmother (who has been dead many years) that I have grand plans to hand-quilt someday. Since I have never handquilted anything, it may be done by somebody after I’m dead.
This is the kind of random thought that hits me when I read stuff. We have a friend who actually rides a unicycle as a mountain bike. Yes, he’s nuts.
I just love personal and alternative weddings. It’s great when the couple’s personality really shine through. Hope you had fun!
(PS – cool hat, and the bride’s dress is so great!)
What a wonderful wedding! Thanks for taking the time to share that with us!
