We've got this done yesterday and are now both with short hair!
It was quite fun! Amazing seeing everyone get their locks cut off.
Really happy with the results. Everyone is looking quite nice and the hairstyles are cool and well done.
Fun showing off the new hairstyles to everyone too.Most having like a wow look Short quite suits Jennifer who has awesomd cheekbones. Kate did her reveal to her son.
It was fun showing off it to Javier. He hadn't seen me with short hair before so was not sure how he'd react but he was quite impressed.

How was the wedding ?
How many guests , what kind of music, any wild stories ?
Have long thought someone could make an entertaining movie about most weddings .

It was quite a cool wedding. We had the initial ceremony like outdoors on a grass field very near a forest. It was definitely one of the most themed and different weddings I've been at with the bride, our cousin Emily having a lot of things that she wanted and make it quite specific. Firstly colours in going with the outdoor theme, you were asked if you could wear an earthy colour green or brown or the like. The bridesmaid had a dark green which I actually quite liked. Some other female guests wore green too with a lot of male guests in brown some even in dark green suits. You were also allowed to dress more casually. Javier had a dark brown suit that I first I wasn't sure about but actually looked quite well on him. For footwear females were kindly asked to go barefoot for the ceremony bit on grass. Those with shoes were asked to remove them for that part and boxes were provided. The rest of the ceremony you could wear what you want, me and Jennifer had flats for parts that involved walking on concrete and stuff. And lastly as previously mentioned bridesmaids and flower girls and guests on Emily's side were asked to go short. Most obliged and seeing everyone look so different at this wedding quite added to it. It was an usual and let's be honest sort of demanding request from her but it worked out quite well. She had 2 flower girls and 2 flower boys(including Kate's son) who all went with short hair, a sort of children of the forest type androgynous outfit and all barefoot too. Emily herself wore a light dress dress that was part silk and lace, her husband wore a brown jacket, white shirt, green tie and kilt The afters was a little more conventional, in hotel with a classic meal, I had went for the chicken option as usual was very nice. Emily who I must say is super creative had her own spin on this too and at the dessert course everyone moved tables so you were sat with people you likely never met before. It was fun to get to know people. I met some nice people on his side of the family. It was a good and innovative touch. Lack of alcohol for me at this wedding made this step a little more difficult but I was determined to chat and get to know some of new in laws and their friends. Despite letting everyone know she was in a relationship, Jen got the numbers of 2 different guys at the table she was sat at here. They were also fighting to with her later . Javi said that was nothing on his brother who looks like actor Santiago Carbrera is super charming and we reckon got the numbers of 10+ ladies.
Speeches were a lot shorter than last year. I think Emily actually had the longest speech but it was fun and still nothing like those ones from last year. Jennifer did a speech that was quite good. She later told me it was the exact same one she did last year.
The was an acoustic traditional ensemble not unlike Mumford and Sons. They completely fit the theme of the wedding and were really good.
They don't have a honeymoon planned next but are looking for something for next year.

You're cousin had some definite ideas, about her wedding , is she that way about everything ? Doesn't matter, it was her day and she could do what she wanted .Sounds very creative & fun . The whole eco theme with the woods & clothes was great and must have been beautiful .Am sure there will be lots of good photos . I liked the idea of revolving seating , that really was a great way for people to meet & interact . An acoustic band ? Interesting . Jennifer had some admirers? My advice wud be to do something like lunch or drinks with them then decide if she wants some fun on the side. Yes I am evil How did the family like Senor Javier & the news you are pregnant or in my native hillbilly 'Carrying a baby " ? Javier's brother was there too ?

Yes she's that way about most things I love her creativity and courage.
Everyone has been really supportive. It's been great really.
Yes he was. He's quite a character, me and Javier each got a plus one so we thought he'd be a good choice to bring!

I am keeping in contact with them via whats app anyway. Lots of money? Hee I'm really not sure ! Maybe.. I liked the traditional folk music band! They were really talented! I may ask Emily to plan my wedding if/when I get married. I like her ideas. I couldn't of the things she came up with here. Something about the forest them that made flirting really easy too. The barefoot aspect helped too because you could just show off two of your assets at any time! It's funny my short hair will be like a long term reminder of this wedding. I'll keep it short for a few months anyway. JA you should update the avatars to reflect our short hair!
