I went to a small town wedding a few years ago and the reception featured a softball game between the wedding party and the volunteer fire department. Some weddings are more fun than others.

My best memory of mine was: We had folk dancing in a barn way up New Hampsha with a fiddling trio. It was 1986--well post hippie: the era of mallrat frizzy bangs and a return to more formal dressing (just post disco--preppie was back).
