It's the weekend, yay! The sunshine is plenty today so I'm feeling great as the day is getting warmer compared to yesterday where the cold was quite unbearable. I did go for a walk along the dirt road in the afternoon instead of taking a nap which I didn't really want to do because it disturbs my body clock, lol!
Anyhow, today, I'm going to share some photographs taken at a wedding reception sometime ago.
NOTE: I'm not doing them justice, the maker of these creative watermelon carvings due to my poor photographs so my apologies in advance :)
While we didn't attend the church ceremonies, we arrived at the reception just in time for some photo opp, lol! Kidding aside, we were late for the church and we knew by that time, it would be full so we went straight to the bride's residence where the reception was to take place. There were plenty of people already when we arrived. And when I say "plenty" it means by the hundreds. Whether invited or not, people would come.
We got our invitation from the father of the bride in December, him being our cousin so yeah, the occasion is not something we would want to miss. Just that we had to wait for an aunt so we drove to the location around 11 in the morning. And after securing our seats, I went for a little adventure, chatted to a few relatives and sneakily captured these photos, lol!
My timid twin came out so I have only taken a few photographs of the fruit carvings when there are several of them displayed on the stretchy (long) tables which were intended for the sponsors. It happens but at least there are times when my twin is able to draw some courage and confidence where her mind would say "what the heck!" and just be even in the midst of people. And I kinda love it!
I did help a bit in arranging some of the food platters and stuff while I was there. Also taken videos of people having fun, dancing what they call "Pattong" and playing traditional instruments. I may share them next time because they needed to be edited for better viewing.
Until then, happy weekend everyone!

Wow that was so wonderful.! I cannot imagine myself doing it. It requires talent and patience. The reception was quite unique. Thanks for sharing.
It is fascinating and I adore people who can do it :) The reception was done on a spacious garden which the family borrowed from their neighbors :)
Thank you too !LADY ❤️

Interesting, one of the event I love going to are weddings, the thought of that "party jollof rice" makes me wants to attend every wedding even if I wasn't invited. Lol!

You surely did have a great time at the reception and those carvings look cool even though you think you didn't capture them well.
Happy weekend to you as well, my regard farm boy😊
Thank you George. Enjoy your weekend too. The farmboy says Hello😉

Oh wow..
The carvings shows lot of love and I must say patient as well..
Because how will someone create this beauty without all the love in the heart..
Well the pictures are great..
But quite questions,is the fruit for people to eat or was it just decorative??
That's right, people who are able to do such creative stuff have patience and are passionate.
Yes, the fruits were eaten :)
