Nothing says love like...

This past weekend one attended a country wedding, not to be confused with A Country Practice, the long running country-medico-soap that aired on Aussie TV for many years, but A Country Wedding in Brookton.

Now there are many things to be excited about at a wedding, the love, the dress, the happiness and of course the food. Now this wedding had not just the love, the dress, the happiness and the celebration, but it had not one, not two but three spits!

One loves a spit roast of beef, or even pork if its been done well. But this wedding had beef, pork and lamb - something for everyone indeed. Check out this, nothing says love like a whole animal on the spit.


Mmmmm YUM! Now that I have dished on the delicious meat, I can continue to blog.

So being the country wedding, the ceremony and reception were held at the Bride's family home which quite frankly ticked all the boxes - long winding drive way, some sheep in the paddocks, fields of flowering canola contrasted against fields of lupins, white picket fence around the farmhouse, big wide veranda - check check check.

Importantly, the dress code was cocktail, so there were many fab cocktail frocks and killer heels. One is always worried for the ladies when at a function involving booze, lawn and killer heels. But fear no more for check out these babies:

Gone are the days of collecting bottle caps to fasten to the ladies' heels, hello Heel Stoppers! They come in black and clear and as modelled here by Megs - the clear ones even have a little sparkle to them.

These must be one of the most needed inventions for ladies of our time. While one was skeptical to begin with, the Heel Stoppers survived the test of time and the test of the boogie well into the early hours of the morning and at $10.95, one thinks they're a bargain!
