I like the atmosphere, I love comparing notes on the decorations, places, I love admiring the bride, and it is a place and time where everyone is happy and merry. I was glad to be invited to a childhood friend's, Gyöngyi's wedding.
She was beautiful as a bride, but I didn't expect anything different as she is beautiful anyway, even when she is not a bride...Her dress was really pretty too, very on trend with the laces and matched the ambience of the place which was at Visegrád Palace. It was cosy but in the same time grandiour and nice.
We took Robin there, so he could attend his first wedding of his life, although he has already been at Visegrád Palace, but couldn't have seen much from inside my belly about a year ago...
We were trying to explain Benji what a wedding is, and that there will be a bride in a nice white dress, so when she appeared we pointed her out, that "look there is the bride", then He pointed at a young man in a white suit:
"Look Mummy, there is another bride too!" (maybe should have explained a bit better, that usually there is only one bride, and usually they are women...)
He had another funny one, while the woman who married them asked them to pull the ring on eachother's finger, she said that it symbolises ethernity as it has no beginning and it doesn't finish.
Then Benji shouted up:
"mummy, it didn't finish yet!, it didn't finish!, didn't finish!" Even the ceremony woman smiled...
After the wedding we took Robin home for Edina to look after him, then we went back to the place of the party which was Udvarház restaurant. I have never heard of this place, which is a shame as it is on the top of one of Buda hills with magnificient views of whole Budapest. Can't beleive that we had so many English visitors in Budapest over the years and we never knew this place to take them to have lunch at! (next time)
Benji behaved really well during the dinner, he even found a little friend, called Lily, they were running around, dancing together most of the night.
He was really looking forward to the cake, but he was so tired that he fell asleep an hour before the cake came out. He was sleeping in my lap, so I spent the rest of the night watching the happenings from my chair. Luckily Tamás the photographer (who was the same guy as on our wedding, also the ceremony master was the same as Gyongyi liked both on our wedding) set up an improptu studio at the corner of the restaurant, so the guest could come and took pictures with the couple. There were funny wigs, clown noses, scarfs...etc, and the settings were funny too. I can't wait to see some of the pictures, I think they will be brilliant
I also was thinking back a lot to our wedding, many things were the same as 5 years ago, but also I wish we could have had a few things which they had. Did I say I like weddings? :-)
We enjoyed ourselves a lot and wish a lots of happiness for Buda and Gyöngyi!!
