Last Sunday, Mer and I got to go to a second wedding reception for our friends Matt and Clarice, who were married last month. It is a little unusual to have a second reception, but our best guess was that it was a chance for some family members who could not make it to the Friday wedding to celebrate. We also think Matt and Clarice are worth celebrating, so it was all good!
The reception was held at the Hudson Country Club, and it was very beautiful. The windows looked out onto the golf course, and Mer and I grabbed a table next to a huge window so we could see better. A couple of former CVCA students (one of whom was a founding member of my improv group) joined us, and we had a delightful time talking and eating. The food was fabulous, and copious. It is amazing that Mer and I are not massive. We were later joined by two other founding members of the improv group, and we got to see another half-dozen former students wandering around. It was a very comfortable afternoon with good people.
Mer and I did manage to get on the dance floor for a couple of dances before leaving. We also took four cupcakes with us, which we loved, since Matt and Clarice had a cupcake tasting party a year ago, to help decide on their wedding cake. It brought back fond memories. The only slightly down-side to the afternoon was that we did not get to see much of Matt and Clarice, since they had hosting duties. Hopefully we can catch up with them for a mini-golf outing once Meredith gets out of her swamped-with-grading time of year in a couple more weeks.
