Rockers Didn't Get to be Ring Pup

There are lots of family staying at our house, so Phil is barista for quite awhile every morning.  He loves to complain, but we think he is only joking! We also think that Phil need not lose sight of the fact that this is basically his only kitchen job!  Wouldn't you think that Mother Of The Bride would be the first person to get her latte, as she is on a normal day?  WRONG!  Turns out daughters and mothers and fathers take precedence.
Rockers was a little bit sad about not being Ring Pup, so I tried to cheer him up.  He pointed out that I didn't get to be Flower Pup either, but I knew in my heart the chances were slim to non existent.  When you hear people saying things like "No Kia" (which I thought it was the name of a phone company) or "Naughty Naughty Noodles" you can pretty much rest assured there isn't any flower carrying in your future.  Rockers was somewhat consoled because the teddybear didn't get to be Ring Bear either.
Our nice neighbours made a pretty blackboard congratulating Meg and Derek.  It was a big surprise and Janet cried she was so touched.  Not shown in the photo is a big round ball with roses covering it entirely.
Janet and Meg made some Pork Dumplings, Smoked Salmon Tortilla Roll Ups and Meg and Derek bought sushi to serve at the champagne toast after the ceremony.  The caterers arrived at 3PM and got to work.
The bar area, being set up.
Now all we need is a bride and a groom!
See how handsome and beautiful our children are?  We love them!

They had appies and champagne at our house and then everyone went to the Oak Bay Bistro for the reception.
The wedding favours.
