The Stinson Wedding

And so begins "Wedding Season," which was so gallantly kicked off by Prince William and Kate Middleton. Eric and I had our first wedding to attend yesterday evening, some friends of ours that 'my' Eric has known since college, Nancy and Eric (Stinson).

With the ever impending rain that seemed to be looming in the forecast we weren't sure how it would pan out since it was at German Park on the south side of Indy. They were having things under a pavilion, but any storm can still make things nasty! But the rain held off - yay!

We had a good time, as Nancy and Stinson kicked a lot of traditions you've come to expect in weddings and made a ceremony and reception to fit their personalities. For example, no cake - they had pies! But there was still enough tradition to know it was a wedding, and a beautiful one at that.

Eric had a mini reunion with a lot of old fraternity brothers (Stinson was one of his fraternity brothers) - there were a lot of them! But it was nice because I knew enough people to be comfortable and not like an outsider as I have at weddings sometimes. Guess it helps that they're part of our circle of friends here in Indy. I always hate being that outsider usually.

So one wedding down and two to go... that we know of, anyway. I think we're good, though, unless someone has a shotgun wedding somewhere along the way.
