Wedding Weekend, Part 1: The Oysters

Friday night (yep, the day after Thanksgiving) was the rehearsal dinner--an OYSTER ROAST! I'm telling y'all, we are all about oyster roasts around these parts. Even if you don't eat oysters (that would be me) you still LOVE going to oyster roasts just because they are so much fun!


I give you, the Rehearsal Dinner...the Rehearsal Roast...the Oyster Roast: 

Breezy with the Groom. Best friends since 6th grade. If there was ever mischief to be made and shenanigans to be up to, these two were there! And, more often than not, they were the only two there. Because everyone else was too chicken. Or smart.

DOGGIES! An adorable shaggy one...

that stole my heart! (Seriously, I wanted to bring her home)

And the cutest little flower girl!

Oysters! That's Danielle on the left and Creighton on the right- the bride and groom!


BestSonInLawEVER and Breezy

Oysters!

Lots of smiles!


The bride!

The bride and Breezy.

So, the guy who was supposed to deal with the oysters got sick. The guys took turns helping out. That's BestSonInLawEVER!

Hubs and BestSonInLawEVER took their turn together!


These precious doggies belong to the bride and groom!

GIFTS!


The groom, his two brothers and their parents. And that precious doggie!

Same as above with the groom's SILs and his bride to be!

The bride's family with her soon to be husband.

Oh Lord. What can I say? Every party has to have one. And it's usually one of mine. :)

Tomorrow, the wedding day!

  5. oysters! oh yummy!! That is one big, shaggy dog. Good thing the party was out doors, or you would still be vacuuming up all the dog hair. I LOVE weddings and it looks like everyone in these pictures does too. So many happy smiles. Blessings on the Bride and Groom.

  9. Kim- Oyster roasts are for the fall and winter girl! LOL Of course, considering you are in Canada, summer would probably be best. :)

  10. Looks like a blast!! Beautiful photos, happy people! And that polar bear - what a beauty! Is that a Great Pyrenees? (I NEVER can remember that name and have to start with 'okay, I know it's a mountain range in northern Spain...' and finally work my way to it! ANYWAY, I have never eaten an oyster in my life, but my grandpa always had to have oyster stew for Christmas Eve. Looks kinda scary to me. :-)
