    Welcome back. Did you have fun at the family wedding? What great or awful thing was noteworthy from that wedding?

    The wedding was FANTASTIC!  I just adore my now SIL.  She's lovely and we've become great friends throughout her courtship with BIL.Most noteworthy aspect to the day involving the planning: DH and BIL's great grandfather is an artist and he was one of the founding members of the art institute where the reception was held.   Some of his art was on display for the reception which was really heart warming.  It was a very nice way of bonding the groom's family to the destination.Most amusing statement: MIL told BIL the day after the wedding that she was thinking of making a visit to the newlyweds (just her) to see them once they returned from their honeymoon!  NOOOOOOOOO!

    Also, when you make things optional, I think you get a more warming response from your BMs who may want to participate.We paid for manis and pedis the day before and for our hair and makeup on the day of.  All of those were optional things to do and we enjoyed all of it because the bride was lovely and low pressure.  She didn't care WHAT we did or IF we did those things...and that made doing those things all that more enjoyable FOR us.
