Indigo Tante on her wedding planning...

"I am going to do all of that traditional wedding stuff that isn't fucking weird.  Fucking weird things that I plan to avoid?  The money dance.  Totally fucking weird.  Traditional, but not insane?  Garter, father/daughter dance, and bouquet toss." - Indigo Tante

Yes - my sister curses like a sailor. How I love her!

(In another lifetime, i.e. pre-Green children, she lived with Green Papa and I.  Indigo Tante had just finished college and was looking for jobs.  Green Papa was constantly traveling for work.  It was like being back in school with the world's most awesome roommate.)

The obscene phrases she can string together really get magical at times.  She now lives in a far away state so my exposure to her effervescent linguistics is limited to the occasional phone conversation. The one and only positive of this situation is that Green Boy is not privy to her special blend of the language arts, and therefore I don't have to be the mom with the creative, but inappropriate, cursing preschooler.  I am not nearly as profane as Indigo Tante, so Green Boy has a chance at to develop some civil communication skills. ;-)

Indigo Tante's Wedding

Indigo Tante, my only sister, is getting MARRIED!  I am very happy for her and Indigo fiance and cannot wait to perform my sisterly duties as Matron of Honor. :-)

Indigo Tante has not been planning her wedding since birth.  She isn't even planning her wedding now and she is getting married this summer.  Apparently, she is one of those crazy people more concerned about the actual marriage then the wedding day.  FREAK!

While actively avoiding wedding planning herself, Indigo Tante isn't averse to my multiple Pinterest Boards dedicated to her special day. I am living vicariously through her because Pinterest, and all its magic, was only a 'twinkle in the sky' nine years ago when Green Papa and I got married.  There are many wonderful, special, heartfelt wedding ideas cataloged by the masses on Pinterest.  These are not some of them...

Indigo Tante said she would have to be drunk to pose for the following picture. I thought it was funny. She said "no fucking way."

Totally awesome Save the Date idea from lydianextstep!  

Indigo Tante was also not impressed with this photo idea.

Tall bride, but where is the groom? imgur.com

I wanted this card as a memento.  I was told to buy it for myself. :-(

An impressive compromise...or just a really ugly cake???
