get together

the date: 24 august 2007
the venue: hotel intercontinental, room 518
the time: 1900 hours
the crowd: the helpers and the BACHELORETTE.
the dress code: pyjamas


this was the invite that was given to all who attended! the original copy would have read: i have a friend in you.










a
not everyone arrived on time yesterday evening though, but everyone was given a goody bag, artfully and meticulously prepared by the maddies (cousins) and my dear second sister. the rationale for the get together was for the wedding helpers to get to know each other better, and to brainstorm for ideas! naturally, it was also a bachorlerette's hen party (sort of).










sometimes i really question the sanity of my family members.











a
when everyone had left, leaving fraemone, marietta, mel and i to stay over, the cousins (frae, marie and i) sat together to bond and talk while one merrily snoozed away in the background.










as you can see from the pictures, we were like three old rickety people sitting around an old english fire place.








a
and naturally! a must-have picture of maddie no. 2 and her mad mane.










a
well, of course, no hotel stay would have been complete without a soak in the bathtub, which i went before anyone woke up this morning! after that, it was buffet breakfast followed by some shopping, suit fitting and cell group!

more photos from the day here!

hope all of you had a great weekend like i did!
