Hakone Gardens in Saratoga
Current mood: 
So, the wedding I went to this Friday was at Hakone Gardens ..beautiful area, I liked how, as the day turned into night...I liked how the silhouette of the trees looked like when you looked up the starry sky that evening... it was a gorgeous night, in a nice tranquil setting. We were all outdoors eating & we had heat lamps going; so it was all nice & toasty....I had such a great time...I was emotional!
Anyway, if you ever get a chance, it is a lovely place to have a wedding or anything else special....again, this one I went to was very personal & intimate, plus a lot of fun...
They did the couple-kissing thing where you would clink your forks on the tableware but they'd pull out different couples' name 1st & then the bride & groom would mimic their kiss...people were getting more elaborate during the night. My friends made the couple at our table choreograph theirs, they did the "wop" & then kissed each other...baha! Another couple next to us, the guy lifted his wife up, spun her around & then kissed her...so cute...
Also, the girl sitting next to me, was my girlfriend's neighbor growing up & my best friend's bro's ex-girlfriend during his college years (got that?) ....yessssshhhhh! Small World, we made a mental note NOT to mention that to her husband..she was a riot, though, I think I made a new friend... she works at Jamba Juice corporate in Potrero Hill in SF & invited me to come there anytime to concoct my own drink for free...when she said this to me, her husband looked at her & said, "Hey! I didn't know that, you've never invited me..." HA! When I get her contact info., I'm going!
Also, I got to dance to "Come on Shake, Shake It" & like some Tone Loc...gawd, we're all getting older!
