As we get older, we don’t get invited to as many weddings as we used to.  This makes it even more important for us to attend the ones that we are invited to, just for the experience.

Last weekend we had the opportunity to attend the wedding of my cousin Erin.  She is younger than me, but has met a strapping cowboy of a man, Lee, and they decided to have a western wedding.  I really didn’t know what to expect going there, but I knew that a night of dancing was of great interest to me and the wife.

I was amazed at everything about the wedding.  From the small town church (it had intricate stained glass windows that I had never seen before), to the hall, it was perhaps the most amazing wedding that I had ever attended.  And that is high praise from me, someone who really doesn’t care about that stuff.

I would have to say the neatest thing that I found there was the Weddingstar favors that they had ordered.  They were little miniature cowboy hats that were placed on each table.  They fit the theme of the wedding so well and made each table more elegant.

I don’t know how the next wedding we will attend will top this one, but I am sure someone will try.  All in all, it was the perfect western wedding, and I am happy that we went.
