SAW IT!!!  My first Dr. Phil experience was that episode -- or part of
it,
rather, while I did situps.  I was in hysterics!

He does crack me up sometimes. 

Ours was quite a fancy affair in some ways, I guess.  We did it at a
country
club here near my parents' house, but we chose the (la-di-da voice)
country
cluuuuuub because it was an old historic mansion with space on the lawn
to
do the ceremony *and* on-site catering.  and they offered us free stuff.
We
made the cakes and flowers ourselves, I made the programs & fans (we
handed
out fans for the ceremony), and we had made our own cds, but then
Brett's
parents offered to get us a dj.  He did a fine job managing events, but
played more than one song we would never have picked!

Everyone seemed to have a fine time; we enjoyed ourselves.  I would
totally
do it again next weekend!

emily, bridal, insouciant grunion

Oh, that sounds lovely (even if the dj did play some strange things).
Good for you. Congratulations, Mrs Kinzig

Laurie wishing the insouciant grunion long life, lots of love and
laugher Phoenix
