Marriage of Robyn and Tom was like watching an American movie, except that part of the cast and the rain, which s' was also invited to the party, reminding us that no, we were not in a movie there ...
Attending Tom and Robyn's wedding WAS like doing some extra in an american soap opera / series ... to the rain & the chilly weather Reminded us That We Were not acting in a movie intended in reality ...

The ceremony took place late afternoon in the garden of the parents of Robyn. Small altar on the lawn chairs, white and blue flowers. The groom is here, protected under the altar, with his groomsmen all dressed identically in white trousers and a tunic from the Philippines, home of Tom. The guests were, to my amazement, dressed in dark colors, which creates a mismatch with the cocktail dresses that are found in stores. I was expecting more eccentricity, color and frou-frou as we see a lot here but no, all was pretty classic ... Either! Go unnoticed if I thought, well it was missed!
The wedding ceremony Took place late in the Afternoon, in Robyn's parents' yard. White chairs set on a perfect lawn, blue flowers and white altar, very convenient on a rainy day! That's where the groom was waiting for the bride, along with his best man and groomsmen. They all wore the same outfit: white pants and beige filipino shirts, Tom's homeland. Guests were surprisingly dressed in dark colours... Interesting as you find a lot of very colourful cocktail dresses in stores. I was expecting more eccentricity and more colour but everyone was very classic in a way... In case I wanted to go unnoticed, well... I could say I failed!
Comme toujours, les invités attendent la mariée et quand la porte d'entrée de la maison s'est ouverte, c'est d'abord le ballet noir et blanc des demoiselles d'honneur qui nous impressed. Then came Robyn, sublime as any married at her father's arms. The ceremony lasted about half an hour and the excitement was palpable ... The exchange of vows between Robyn and Tom have shed some tears. Much love, it's always heartwarming, especially when it's freezing in the rain! ;)
As usual, The Most exciting time awaits you When a wedding the bride IS When Comes Into the church ... Outside the house gold! WE first Saw The bridesmaids getting out one by one And Then the bride Appeared at Her Father's arms. Robyn Looked gorgeous. The ceremony lasted half an Hour and It Was wery emotional, Especially for Robyn and Tom's wows. The tearful Said audience clapped and some "cheers", happy to witness so much love ... and it aussi WARMS you up When seating Under The Rain! ;)
Kisses married, joy and cheer signature records (yes, no passage to the Town Hall is the administration that comes to you!) Then all this small world 's is directed towards the large tent in the garden ... and let the fun begin!
Let's Get The Party Started!!
Just married!
Each table had a different name and city Yared and I were at the table "Toulouse". Oh, how bizarre? lol That's where I met Robyn, in college, ten years ago already ... We got acquainted with our fellow diners. I'm glad to see that is with Arezou, with whom I sympathized with the bridal shower. We do not really know what to do, we wait ... Hunger is felt and the opening of the buffet attracts people like bees to honey. A long queue forms and wait patiently for our crackers and a few pieces of cheese. It heats up immediately - it is rather due to the punch! When the couple join us, after the endless photo sessions, the kickoff dinner at 19h.
Every table was named after a city and Yared and I were at the table of Toulouse. How weird? lol That's the southern French city where Robyn and I first met during our study ten years ago... Wow man!! We introduced ourselves to the other couples around us and made small talk. I was happy that Arezou, whom I met at the Bridal shower, was at the same table. The hungry crowd then headed to the buffet to get some crackers and cheese... and beers or "punch". The newlyweds came back from the wedding shooting and dinner was getting served... at 7pm. Yeah baby!
Yared ne sait lequel choisir... trop d'alcool tue l'alcool!
Yared doesn't know which one to pick up... too much booze buddy!!
The evening passes quietly between the expectation to reach the buffet (to queue again and again) and tasting dishes. A group of Filipino dancers gave a demonstration of traditional dances and then everyone resumes / continues to eat. Only later, around 10am, which will start the speeches in tribute to the newlyweds. The mother of the bride and the father of the bride. Brother. The Stepfather (great shape, thanks to the alcohol? Anyway, Romeo has a good laugh! We love it!) The boys, who engage in passing a few well kept secrets. The best man and maid of honor. There have been many emotions, rhetoric, humor and lots of love. One hour during which I made myself relentlessly attack by mosquitoes ... I was going to report the next day! How come there were so many mosquitoes out there? There's a Laco or pond in the corner? I'll investigate! Mosquitoes, I hardly seen since I live in Vancouver (and to my great relief, because they love my blood hot and sweet ...)
We Spent all evening, lining up to get some food - It Was Really Like Being back to the Olympic fever! - And eating. At 10pm, it WAS time for speeches. From the mother of the bride & the father. Her brother. Her father-in-law (so funny that night and a little bit drunk I guess) Then some friends shared with the audience hidden secrets - for the pleasure of Robyn and Tom! Then it was time for the Best man and the maid of honour. Very emotional speeches, beautiful words, lots of humour and much much love! While listening, I didn't noticed I became the buffet for all mosquitoes attending the wedding that night but I will painfully notice it the day after. How comes?? Is there a lake or a pond around there?? I've never seen any mosquito since we arrived in Vancouver and I was so relieved, especially because they are fond of my sweet and sugary blood... Poor of me!
Les discours finis, les yeux essuyés, le DJ retourne the decks and start the Black Eyed Peas with "I got a feeling" neither one nor two, everyone ended up on the center track to wiggle and scream to celebrate the newlyweds! Everyone, from 7 to 77 years, danced on the tubes of the 80s and 90s (y 'eu "scatman" oh my god!) It was really fun, even if I came back with 15 mosquito bites and a toe in less ... well yes, in full delirium on "footloose", there's a girl (I mention no names but I do not think less ... arghh) that I planted her heel in my Tiny left toe. My God it hurt. Y 'was blood everywhere on the piste et -non, là j'exagère mais bon j'ai souffert pendant une semaine et maintenant mon orteil a une tronche toute bizarre... Estropiée et couverte de crème anti-démangeaison pendant une semaine, bonjour la 2e semaine de vacances ! :p
The DJ played "I got a feeling" from the Back Eyed Peas and everybody headed to the main stage and danced, yelled or jumped with the now husband and wife! We had so much fun dancing on some hits from the Eighties (I love the Eighties and I assume it! Yes!) and the Nineties (remember "I'm a scatman" guys??) even though an "accident " occured while dancing like crazy on "footloose". A lady (don't torture me I won't say any name even tough I wish I could have killed the girl...Argdhh) just put her high heels on my tiny cuty small toe! WTH!! It hurt so much!! there were blood all over the stage and - no I'm kidding but It was really painful for more than a week and now my toe looks really "funny"! Crippled and using a anti-itching cream for a week, what a nice entertainment for my second vacation week!! :p
I got a feeling...
Yeah, I've got a good feeling because that night was a very good night!!
Wish u a happy life R&T!
