Thanks, Helen, delurked, Shevia, Karin, El Cee, Marianna, Runcarla, Joyce, rabbit, and Sally, for your kind comments.
Brooklyn, I wish I had taken a picture of the bridesmaids. Also, their dresses were all different except for color.
Astrid, that was the hat I mentioned in your hat thread.
Carter, the dress gets to go to the cleaners tomorrow - I sweat up a storm!
Xtabay, the bride loves the heat and that's why the wedding was when it was. She looked cool as a cucumber. I don't like the heat and got married in the winter!
Jenn, I loved Anne of Green Gables. Thanks for likening me to her.
Thirkellgirl, I was very interested in your barn wedding, and your footwear, etc. As hot as it was, it could have been much worse. A week or so ago it was over 100 around here.
I have a nearly identical dress in black and white. I would have worn it but didn't have a hat that went with it. I need to get another hat. And then I ended up not wearing the hat!
The bride was lovely. She was wearing a very rare wedding dress - it had shoulder straps. I wish I had taken a picture of the bridesmaids in their cowboy boots. Lots of young women wore cowboy boots, but several women my age did too. Half of the guests were actually from the very rural part of my state, where they wear cowboy boots every dsy.
I went to the wedding for my friend, MOB. She looked wonderful too. Her hair is usually big and wild, but it was so beautiful with big soft curls. She also looked relieved that everything had turned out so well.
