After eight years of dating bliss, our little France (and we say that affectionately at under five feet tall and cute as can be!!) finally got hitched to her long time boyfriend, Francois!
We have all been anticipating her wedding ever since Francois wisked her away for Banff (she thought that she was going to the Casino in Gatineau!!) last fall for a secret proposal with the platinum eternity band that she loved. Really, after eight years of dating, there is no way that he would get away with simply proposing over Cheerios one morning at breakfast!!
There was talk that they were originally going to get engaged the day of our wedding because they were coming to the ceremony but couldn't make it to the reception due to "plans" that Francois made but didn't tell France about. I called her from the airport the following Monday to find out and it turns out that he had planned a romantic dinner in Montreal...but no ring! This guy obviously had more secrets up his sleeve!!
Anyways, not only was it exciting to see them get married, but we also got the chance to have all the "original" girls (and Yves!!!) reunited again at Stanley's Old Maple Lane Farm, complete with bug spray, for the big event. We had a terrific time!!! We laughed, danced, drank and learned very quickly that stiletto heels, regardless of how cute they are, don't work so well in grassy farm lands (a story for another time however!!!).
