Are you H-A-P-P-Y?

A great wedding yesterday - the whole event, the ceremony and the reception were wonderful. The bride looked stunning, the groom suitably dashing and handsome, the vows were exchanged with feeling and emotion (and some tears), the reception had a lovely atmosphere, speeches were good and funny, the band played a mix of 80s classics, and I had a little (very bad) dance. I even got to have a hold of a lovely little baby. Thoroughly enjoyable - it was a wedding you were really glad to have been invited to and it had plenty of that vital 'vibe'.

Couple of things - the wedding ceremony vows contain the phrase "with my body I honour you". I've seen my body - I'm not sure I could say that line with straight face ;o)

Talking to someone at the reception they asked "are you happy?" Bit deep I thought - I was more prepared for 'are you going anywhere nice on holiday' conversations. They then followed it by saying "you look happy." This intrigued me - I look numerous things - sometimes docile, occasionally vacant, a bit like Barry from Eastenders - but happy would not be the first thing that sprung to mind. Guess it was being at such a happy event - or the free flowing champagne!
