What I did today

[cleolinda]

So: Sister Girl and I went to The Lovely Emily's wedding (you may remember her being mentioned in "Prisoner of Azkaban in Fifteen Minutes," if nothing else; we were roommates through most of college). The ceremony was out in Bluff Park; it started promptly at 2:00 pm and was over at 2:16, because Methodists know how to do this shit up right, and by "right" I mean "fast." Her colors were sort of a pine/emerald green for the wedding party's dresses and vests, with accents of flame orange (read: tiger lilies), and she'd had a pendant made out of a swirl of lace, with a lace sash for her dress and lace earrings for the bridesmaids as well.

The reception, meanwhile, was out at the Bare Hands Gallery on 1st Avenue South. I'd immediately thought "paintings," but it was actually more of an arts-and-crafts thing--a lot of jewelry, some textiles, some sculpture,

but most importantly:

THE DISCO DEER.

The cake had both yellow and chocolate layers, and was covered in a chocolate frosting, decorated with orange lilies.

I got right up there with the official photographer (a few feet to the side) and her other "paparazzi" and took as many pictures as I could get the camera to hold; most of which were somewhat artistically! blurry because I had no idea what I'd catch. But I did get some really funny ones and some really clear, striking ones as well. Unfortunately, anything incriminating with faces will stay happily off the internet. I will, however, show you my shoe:

And with that, I have officially run out of unpaid user space on Flickr. Disco Deer bless us, every one.

I think that if I got that disco deer, I could probably die happy. OMG SPARKLES.

Those lilies! Gorgeousness. The lovely Emily has great taste.

*covets disco deer*

*wonders if, with gazillion pounds of glitter and tacky mirror baubles, and of course, a deer head, if I can make my own*

Disco Deer is something else.

Congrats to the bride and groom and I like her dress.

Disco deer is shiny, ooohhhh.

Disco deer reminds me of...

[greedyskunk.livejournal.com]

LOL! That is the first thing I thought of, too!

[divadeanna.livejournal.com]

Congrats to her. It reminds me of my sister's wedding. We were done with that ceremony in about 10 minutes, then, we all went inside to eat and party. It was great. lol

Wow. That sink? water fountain? is something.

[dried-frog-pill.livejournal.com]

While the disco deer is blindingly awesome, I like the...I think it's a sink? That is very cool.

*fights urge to paint phrases onto her own sinks*

[sirinde.livejournal.com]

Is it a drinking fountain? That would fit into what the words are saying about discrimination.

I frequently have to keep myself from painting/writing/drawing things all over my belongings.

[lost-garnet.livejournal.com]

I suppose Edward hunts the sparkly deer.

Or would it be too close to a pony?

[particle-person.livejournal.com]

Congrats to Lovely Emily! And I love the Disco Deer.

Also, knowing you, I thought it would be the rum you'd be hitting.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Eh, my choices were "beer" and "wine."

[foresthouse.livejournal.com]

Yay for Emily! (May all Emilys find such happiness, eh? :)

It looks really lovely. I love tiger lilies. Also: your shoes. :)

Her dress and the flower (?) in her hair are SO. CUTE. :)

I went to a wedding today too, but it was significantly lacking in disco deers.

[mrs-bruin.livejournal.com]

Yay weddings. Congratulations to the lovely Emily (who looks lovely in that picture!) What a fun reception location!

IT'S A CERVINE SPARKLEPIRE, apparently suicidal aww.
