My last appearance as bridesmaid

I've stopped accepting such roles... because... as far back as five years ago... I already thought that I was just way too OLD for it. But when Joanna asked me to be one of her bridesmaids back in January, I could not say "NO!!!" to her!

So, I found myself booking this long-haul flight on economy(!!!) for her 5th of June wedding in Switzerland. At 8:00-ish, the bridesmaids met the bride for HAM (hair and make-up), and by 12, we have gotten dressed at Julie's beautiful flat by the river, piled into a vintage Bentley, picked up the flowers, confused our young driver many times over, and made it to the castle for the wedding ceremony.

This picture was taken after the wedding and as we were sipping cocktails during the apero. From left: me, Karin, Dieter & Joanna, Christian, Julie:


It was a beautiful day --- especially ordered by the bride! Best wishes to Joanna and Dieter!
