Great Wedding Party

We had a great time at the wedding yesterday. Since the bride is Swedish and the groom is African, there was a mix of Swedish and African traditions. The party actually started with an African woman teaching us some African dance moves. OMG, is all I have to say. :) But it sure was hilarious to look at. She, the dance instructor, was so good and so much fun to watch.... Well after having warmed up to some African rhythms it was time for some fabulous food – yummy. By this time I was freakn’ starving... hahaha... After dinner and some speeches it was time for some dancing, and boy did we dance all night long. Guess what they jump started the night with??? My favourite song – “Celebrate good times, come on”. :) The party was so on!! The groom, Mr. O, is such a great dancer; he sure showed us some of his fabulous moves... hahaha

I have to say, I met so many interesting people at the wedding who came from all over the world. Well lots of crazy funny people too, for that matter. This one guy, from Uganda (now living in Sweden), was crazy. Mr. L and I laughed our asses off at him all night. A woman from England was crazy hilarious too. When two of the groom’s friends were dancing, shakin’ it and acting all silly (asses all up in the air), this crazy English woman saw her opportunity and ran up and slapped one of them in the ass.... and we’re talking HAAAARD. I mean you could hear the "smack" over the loud music. LOL. I almost died laughing ‘cause he thought it was his buddy who did it... the look on his face – totally priceless. :)

Here are some pics from the wedding ...

This was the Bride's cousin (& toast master) who decided to dress in a traditional African dress. She's getting help from the best man's wife.

Halloj! JA, fan vilken bra helg! Ni verkar också haft superkul! Afrikansk dans är väl kanske inget man provar på varje dag :) Kram
