Thanks, Thalek - you kept me from asking this question.
I will see what I can do with photos - as said the wedding is on St. Nicholas Day (December 6th) with just two friends. The church wedding (how do you call this?) will be in June 2012 (on Corpus Christi) and we will have the complete marketplace for the party if everything goes as desired. Our local churches plan a wedding-party with all couples who did not marry in church so far but now want to. The ceremony will be in each one's church (lutherian, catholic), then all couples and guests will have party in the town with a band, cakes, beer and bratwurst. The couples are invited by the parishes, the guests will have to bring some Euros to buy what they want at the wurst stall, baker's hut or the concession stand. We read of the plans of the local parishes in the newspaper and found the idea very appealing, most of all as someone just stated "Why getting married - that's so expensive in these days.". I had a great time when I said: You're invited, bring 10 Euros and help yourself!
But to be honest: This kind of party is exactly what I like - not as stiff and dry as we are used to but outdoor with many people and in the town where we live (a town that is notrious for it's street parties and celebrations like "32 pubs - 32 bands" - as more as we are only 41.000 citizens -babies included- to visit all these pubs).
I'm not always right, but my mistakes are more interesting!
And I am not strange, I am Limited Edition!
