Green bean casserole, sweet pickled carrots.
     Pretty tableware, antique bone china rented from us. Glassware, fluted glasses to drink nonalcoholic champagne. Off-white coffee cups, standard drinking glasses. Everything is so beautiful to look at in awww of a love-filled day.
       Memories to beholden to forever like marriage is suppose to be. . Then each table will have a disposable camera to take pictures.
