"I couldn't decide if I wanted to go out or not. My arm was twisted and I went, unshowered. On September 5, 2009 I walked into Grey's Bar to meet some old friends for drinks. I ordered a beer and a friend I was with ordered me a beer as well. About that time I noticed a guy in a pink shirt eyeing me down. I mean, REALLY eyeing me down!! Keep in mind I had two drinks in front of me. The waitress walked up and handed me ANOTHER beer...that made THREE! She told me the guy at the next table bought it for me. Mark was super brave and walked up to me when I was with a big group of friends. He introduced himself, I didn't understand his accent, thought it was his name was 'Max'. I pointed to my three Bud Light in front of me and asked him if he would like a drink. He laughed and said he didn't drink 'that American stuff'. (He does now, I may add.) We talked all night long! It started raining and I offered him and his friend Andy a ride home...which I would normally NEVER do...but Andy kept telling me how 'safe' they were. I'm marrying the guy who bought me a drink. Cheers!"
Their wedding was at The Gardens of Green Gables in Oak Ridge, NC. The weather was perfect and everything was beautiful. I just love Allison's style!
And yes, there was even a celebrity in our midst!! After talking around and using a smart phone, Anna finally came to the conclusion that this was indeed Kerry Vincent, the cake lady of the Food Network Challenge, and she was dying to meet her. So, I offered to go over and say hello, of course I had no idea who she was but I will never miss an opportunity to take a photo with a celebrity! Those headbands of hers are crazy by the way...and I must wonder what she thought of the cake? It was delicious but apparently she is the "Simon Cowell" of cakes...and not very nice according to the wedding party.
I am not exactly sure how this happened, but Lindsay somehow managed to get wax all over her face when she was blowing out one of the tea lights...what a sight to see!
