Miss Lime
and
Mr. Lime

request the pleasure of your company
at their marriage
on Sunnyday, the unshaded day of August
two thousand and seven
at sweat o’clock

An All Outdoor Venue
Hothothot, California

We [me, Mr. Lime, and the wedding party], will be under the cool shade of some enormously tall bamboo. Unforutnately, about four-fifths of our guests will bear the full brunt of Southern California, August sun beating down on their [mostly dark-haired] heads.

To give their sweat glands somewhat of a break, we’re providing parasols. “A tent!” you say? Like, ew, the venue totally doesn’t allow that [no offense to tent wedding brides. I’ve seen amaaaaazing looking ones. But we can’t afford that, now]. We will also be doing the now-famous water/lemonade/iced tea/other iced but non-alcoholic liquid refreshment station for pre-ceremony, to keep everyone hydrated.

These are the best looking beverage dispensers [in my opinion] that I’ve found so far. Too bad the price tag is not as tasty.

You can find these overpriced babies in these two places: Wild Flower Organics and Scarlett Alley.

If you have a resale license, you can buy direct from Roost for MUCH less that advertised above, but they do have minimums.

My caterer is going to leave out nice, basic pitchers included in the per person price for the drinks. You can’t beat “free” (er, already included. It feels free, though!).  Plus they are easier to refill.  Sorry, guests, that you’ll all be baked potatoes, but I won’t.  I promise cocktail hour is in a much cooler [mostly shaded] area, with cool refreshments.
