Knitted Wedding
Oh, my goodness! A totally knitted wedding - from the invitation . . .
. . . to the eats . . .
. . . to the outfits . . .
It was a day full of fun, friends and family - at least from the look of it.
The lovely couple
invited everyone who could to knit all of the accessories for their wedding gifts - please do go over and read all about it at their page. And, be sure to browse through the rest of their pictures.
It’s definitely a tongue in cheek (British!) wedding.
I love British weddings - attended one in Las Vegas last year - I know, Las Vegas! It was a kitschy Elvis Presley wedding between two online friends whom I had not met before the day before their wedding - in Las Vegas! I am smiling even now to remember it.
Brits seem to be so much more witty - in a backhanded way at times - than we very serious ‘muricans. To go along with the fun, I took them a typically Alaskan wedding gift - moose poop on a stick - swizzle sticks to be exact. Yup, true to form, they LOVED them.
For their first anniversary I sent them mini belly button lint brushes (looked like teeny toilet brushes). Those, they also loved. You see . . . fun. Not the stodginess we sometimes thing of with our forefathers.
by the way - the wedding cake was also knitted.
is that fun or what? The invitation told everyone drinks would be served, but for everyone to bring a picnic lunch as food would all be knitted. Looks like they meant it. Even the knife was knitted.
(some pattern ideas are included on the invitation page.)
