It's been a while, and I don't really want my blog to turn into something I only remember exists after a big life event. And only after two months have passed. But oh well. The summer is too hot, and I'm tired, and I should be editing my book, so it only makes sense that I'm here, posting my wedding pictures.
We were going to wait after covid was done, but who knows when that will be, right? So we got married in April. We never wanted a big party anyway, because we're just not party people. It was great not having to worry about anyone else but ourselves.
We had a friend take pictures, which turned out pretty good! A relief, because we really didn't have money to pay for a professional photographer.
We took pictures outside the magistrate, and the simple grey wall turned out to be a surprisingly nice background.
We had planned to go eat in our favourite restaurant where we had booked a private room, but all restaurants were closed again literally a day before. So we just ordered sushi instead.
Rita had her hair and make up done and I did mine at home.
It was a fun day. I can't even imagine how people who actually have a wedding party manage to also enjoy the day because we were SO tired even though we did practically nothing. :'D
We stayed the night in Linnunlahti camping area. They have these little houses we've always admired, and one night was surprisingly affordable.
Next morning, we picked up our favourite cake from café Houkutus. It's a vegan chocolate cake, and I've never had cake this good anywhere.
It's weird how happy and relieved you can feel about having got "getting married out of the way". xD Maybe it's because pandemic is so stressful. Throwing a party literally would've felt like a chore.
