I took a few pictures at my cousin's wedding yesterday 'cause I wanted to show Eddie how pretty a legion hall can get if you decorate it right. So I thought I'd post them here.

Here's the centerpieces. They bought all the flowers at the farmer's market and the people there put together the bouquets and arrangements. Way cheaper than hiring a florist... though probably a lot more work involved. Very pretty, they are.

The head table. My aunt bought the icicle lights at a garage sale for $10, I think. My sister told me I should get blue ones after Christmas 'cause they always have a ton left.

The cake! My aunt (not my cousin's mom) made it. It was very pretty and very tasty, but I don't think I'll ask her to do ours like I wanted to 'cause I feel like it would be a hassle to get it from Wisconsin to here, and she also said it was kind of hard to make a cake in the summer heat.

My sister with our cousin's baby (not the one that got married). That baby was the most adorable baby ever, and she was so calm the whole time. My uncle handed her to my sister, and she (the baby) just fell right back asleep.
It was a very nice wedding, and it made me realize the amount of things that people need to do for a wedding and all the stuff that we need to do. Another cousin (the brother of the groom yesterday) is getting married in two weeks. His FW came up to me and asked questions about my wedding. I've only seen her a few times in the 6 or so years they've been dating, so that was cool of her to do. It'll be very interesting to see the differences between the 2 weddings in 2 weeks. Sorry if the pics are huge.
