At friends wedding

Last Saturday I went to Tampere to celebrate a friends wedding. They got married at this really wonderful place which was called Hatanpään Kartano (Hatanpää Mansion). It was really lovely place and despite the dark clouds, it didn't rain at all :) There were just few family members and alot of friends of the happy couple.

Happy couple :)

I had my bag and shoes that I bought from Bulgaria. The shoes were really nice, expect when we had to stand in the grass and my heels didn't have any support. You could easily track my route anyway, as the sand "road" (whatever you call those where you walk in the park) didn't like to stay under my heels either.

Me and my friend ( we are old co-workers of the bride) went outside and took some pics of our own :) I am not putting my friends pic here, but she was pretty as a picture.

Me!

The food was wonderful! Sorry but I did not take picture of it. The salad or the appetizers options were vast (for those who don't understand Finnish, it is the first part). I would almost say that the salad table was enough. I didn't eat that much from the main course just because I was so full.

What a menu

At our dinner table there also were disposable cameras with what we could take pictures of the celebration. The idea behind them was that the couple would developer one camera per month during the first year of the marriage. I do have to say that I was able to get my hands on two different cameras, which means there will be lots of pics by me :) Well not that many pics, I just took few pics and gave the camera forward (as there was only one camera per table and there were six of us in the table).

One camera for every month of the first year of marriage 

The first dance was danced under a chandelier.

The gifts

Both the mother and sister of the bride gave speach where they gave small gifts to the happy couple. The mothers gifts were from my friends past and mainly just for her. The sister also gave to the groom gifts. As I sat behind them for these speaches I was not able to take good pics. I do think that one part for my pics not been very good is that my camera is getting really old :/
