A perfect evening

My cousin recently got married in Salt Lake City.  She had a perfect garden wedding reception in Utah and then later had a reception in her home town in Tennessee.  Her dress was beautiful.   Simple and elegant.  I attended their garden wedding.  They had looked at a bunch of different wedding venues and decided that they wanted their reception to be outside.  It was a perfect evening with perfect weather.  There was a live band and a lot of lamps strung up over the reception area.  The food was simple and delicious.  I cannot imagine a more perfect wedding.  On one table, there were pictures of when they were dating.  On another table, there were pictures of the two of them when they were kids. It made me want to have a garden wedding. The only thing that worries me is that you have to have just the right weather or else the evening is ruined.  Sometimes it's better to play is safe and have the reception inside than the try and plan a garden wedding, only to have to move it inside when the first raindrop falls.  I am glad that my cousin was lucky enough to get perfect weather for her perfect day.
