Kimmi and Gabbi's wedding was at Volunteer Park in the Conservatory and was very nice, with a small group.
Craig and B got married in Las Vegas in May.
We decided to have a reception party for all the family who was not able to be with us for our nuptials. I chose July 29 as that was the only day Jessica was free from her job at Camp.
We chose Tacoma as our location as it is in the middle of everyone. No one invited actually lives in Tacoma though! I found a park that had a shelter rental available for that day. A few weeks later I was able to go see the park in person and I was pleased with the park.
For food, we decided to keep it simple and go with sausages, both meat and Vegan, over a grill with salads, I got the salads and the fruit trays from WartHog Bbq in Fife. We bought the sausages and buns from Costco. We hired a chef to run the grill. Cakes came from Costco.
The day before the party, Jessica informed me that she can't make it due to Whooping cough. Drat!
On Party day, B was still recovering from Hong Kong trip, having brought home a stomach bug. We had a lot of work to do setting up. Crista and her family showed up and helped while I had to go get the catering.
It was a bit chaotic on set up but we got it done and the party was underway!
It was soo good to see everyone! so much family from both sides. This was the first time that the two families have met. The weather was perfect!!
