Well Amigos, Pretty and the old woman Slow just rolled in from the Wedding Rehearsal and Rehearsal Dinner moments ago, and The Red Man has to say our evening meal was quite late. Of course, no complaints from Casa de Canterbury since we are all aware of the sacrifices to be made for Number One Son and Pretty Too’s Wedding tomorrow.
Apparently weddings require practice, and this afternoon was the Dress Rehearsal.

The Red Man loves gardens with flowers –
too bad he won’t be inspecting this one up close and personal
(as a result of being uninvited)
Number One Son has definite opinions –
hm…wonder where he gets that?
Rehearsal Reward: PARTY!!!

So Sports Fans, these are a few highlights of the Wedding Eve with more excitement to follow from the Big Event tomorrow…
The Red Man is trying hard not to complain about being left at Casa de Canterbury during all the festivities and having to rely on a few pictures taken by an unreliable assistant who was supposed to be covering the stories with due diligence. Oh, well. You take what you can get, and this is what we can get.
Get me outta here Percy, I need to do my part by waking them up early tomorrow morning so they can hit the road again for Phase 2: The Bridal Brunch. Have mercy, Percy.

What a lovey place for a wedding. Both Prettys are, um, pretty!! 😀 Slow you look tiny next to everyone else, and a lovely sight too.
May the wedding couple be blessed with countless years of happiness and prosperity.
Hugs and love from the Pennsylvania Almighty Pack ❤

Ann, thanks so much for the love and hugs from the Pennsylvania Almighty Pack!! 🙂
We hope the very same happiness and prosperity for Drew and Caroline – they are both really special young people (to their people, of course!).
The setting was incredible – the property has about a hundred acres surrounding the house, and the land has been in Caroline’s mother’s family for generations so a really good idea to have it there. The rehearsal day was gorgeous – the wedding day not so much, but we were truly blessed with enough dry time for the lovely ceremony. Life is good for our family this day.
Much love,
The old woman Slow and Pretty and the Pack

You are exactly right Terry with all of that – and we are exhausted today. Pretty had to go back to work, and I was left in charge of pictures!! 🙂

how nice everybody and everything looks, thanks for putting this up, thoroughly enjoyed, can’t wait to see the brunch and then the big wedding, of course if I could be there, and wished I could, I would probably have plenty of opinions concerning the music, I’m sure it will be beautiful..those on country hill, over and out…

Yes, thanks for the good wishes from the country hill cousins! The wedding was beautiful, and I wish you all could have been here for it – the music was beautiful, just guitar and cello – subdued but beautiful. I’m sure you could have added a little zip if there had been an organ available!! 🙂

The real deal went down superbly – had rained really hard in the morning and early afternoon continued drizzling. But for the twenty minutes it took for the ceremony, the rain completely stopped and the outdoor wedding went on as planned and rehearsed! All was well for the newlyweds! Wish you could have been with us…but thanks for coming via pictures!! 🙂

The rehearsal and dinner, the photos and the love shown by all towards each other helped make me feel included in all the lovely festivities. I am sometimes hurrying through my friends’ blogs over the weekend at the library. I managed a ‘like’ but here is my summary of my emotions. I would have cried, just a few tears, since I simply love happy endings and weddings!

Robin, thank you so much – I was trying to make my cyberspace friends feel like they were a part of the festivities because I truly wished for you all to be there! It was a memory maker of a weekend, as Granny Selma would say. And I wished for her, too.
Love to you from Casa de Canterbury,
Sheila
