to have one of the best weddings evar.

We got a ride in a disco coach complete with rounded leather seats and neon rainbow track lights to the hall. The guests were attired in all manner of festive dress, including bridesmaid’s dresses (from other weddings), tuxes, tails, kilts & boas, spangles, bangles, silk and creme brule (a hat, I kid you not).

After some mingling and introductions, it was off to the wedding cabaret. Think of your traditional wedding ceremony. So, it was something like that, except there was a stage and some wonderful divas belting out songs about love, and trivia contests for chocolate, and readings from Microserfs and poems about being uncomfortable in the Bay lingerie area, and a dancer stripping down to her “shaper” underwear, and the brothermaids in their kilts and feather boas duking it out “Millionaire” style, some salacious & bawdy stories, and interpretive dance to Total Eclipse of the Heart, and the singing of Oh, Canada, and lovely heartfelt vows wherein Kate and Rosemary became lawfully wedded spouses.

Plus, due to a legally binding contract from the brothermaids during their “welcome to the family” speeches, I got the chance to look up not one, but two kilts. New rule: men should be made to wear kilts at all special occasions. (All the better for twirling on the dancefloor – delightful!)

Plenty of fun on the dancefloor where it was anything goes. The Queens/brides had time to have a drink and talk with everyone and be gracious and laugh and enjoy the day, as it should be on your wedding day. The whole place was a big funfest love-in.

Thanks, Kate and Rose, for inviting me to your special day.
