They will have the ceremony there and then have to come back to Canada to do the legal bits but we are so excited nevertheless!
Having never traveled before and not being fluent in the language, they confessed to being more than a little nervous. Andrew, my husband and I have been to and LOVE Paris so when they asked if we would tag along we didn't hesitate in saying yes. So there you have it, I am off to Paris again!!! I am so excited to see my first child tie the knot and I can't think of anything more romantic than Paris in the spring.
I really don't expect that I will be much help with the language barrier as I seem to only have the ability to suss out French when it is written and don't understand much Parisian French when it is being spoken to me. Oh, well, at least I can stop him from ordering Cuisses de grenouille (frog legs) or Lapin (bunny rabbit) so that is important. Becky is vegan, gluten free and non-dairy so yikes, it will be hard finding appropriate meals for her.
Anyhow, I just received my new dollhouse kit from Petite Properties, it is the first in their dollhouse series and oh so French, La Petite Palais. It is so pretty but I can't start it until I have finished my small-time miniatures French townhouse. The rate in which I am acquiring projects vastly exceeds the rate in which I am finishing them but I am planning on having a long and productive old age though so it is all good.
How romantic a wedding in Paris. Congratulations to the happy couple. Your new dollhouse from petite properties looks AMAZING! So Parisian Chique. Greetings AM
ReplyDeleteGreetings to you too! I am really looking forward to the wedding!!
DeleteCongratulations to the young couple! PARIS!!!! They are Romantic! Have a wonderful time and be sure to visit the Roses at the Jardins de Bagatelle... on the outskirts of the Bois de Boulogne.... a Rose lovers Paradise in June and even into July!
ReplyDeleteYour Petite Property looks Beautiful....what scale is it?
Hi Daydreamer, I believe it is 1:48 scale. So pretty small. I thought I would have like to have electrified it but it is obviously before electric lights so I don't think I will bother.
DeleteCongratulations! It will be a beautiful wedding and a fantastic opportunity for you to go to Paris. Enjoy and have a petite viennoiserie for me.
ReplyDeleteOkay, I am going to have to look that one up on the google translator but if it isn't slimy and sort of dessertish, I will, and thank you!!
DeleteHello Sculptress,
ReplyDeleteCongratul;ation to the young couple. I went to Paris on my honeymoon and it was wonderful. Don't worry about the language barrier, tourism is important and you will manage to communicate just fine. The house is magnificent. I look forward to seeing it decorated.
Big hug,
Giac
We were there once before a couple of years ago and everyone we met were truly lovely.
DeleteYou have done an amazing job on the tiny French townhouse and you have made me really jealous - a wedding in Paris - how romantic and wonderful.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to both your son Michael and his fiance Becky! Destination weddings are getting to be the in thing now days and What A Destination!!!! As soon as one even says the word Paris, Romance, Music, Wine and Roses comes to mind immediately. I wish the couple a very happy life together.
ReplyDeleteYour little French house is just as adorable as your French townhouse. Something to anticipate after your return. :))
