Nice of you to update - so it was a Jewish wedding - they are quite something aren't they? I've been to one -500 guests!! Anyway, you went, that's great - tge first step is probably the hardest and I'm glad your friend appreciated your going

Thanks to all for so much great advice on my eek to first big social post marriage going up. Wanted to find original post for inspiration before I went. But couldn't. So just remembered bits that I could. Got nails and hair done. Did the long trip there and survived two memorable days at the hugest wedding have ever been to, was madness. Jewish wedding. Couple thrown up in chairs in scariest way. Daughter of oldest friend's wedding, She looked after me so well.
But still came away feeling sad that I went alone and couldn't share all sorts with someone else. Felt like Billy no mates a lot of the time. And low next day. Glad I went, my friend appreciated my effort. But golly, it's hard.
