I kept waiting for her to put the veil over her face and thinking that
that would make it look better.  But I waited in vain.  Afterwards, I
was hoping--no, praying-- that she would take it off.  I mean, if she
*was* having a bad hair day, I think I would have preferred that to the
veil from hell.

And what about Livia's fingernails?  When she was saying her vows to
Tom, they were a sort of burgundy/wine color, but after the wedding,
they were clear.  Where were the AMC continuity folks?

And I don't mean to totally slam Livia (I loved her dress.  I thought it
was one of the better wedding gowns from AMC's repertoire--Natalie seems
to get the short end of this stick), but was her eye make-up just a
teensy bit on the, shall we say, heavy side?

I liked Hayley's dress and thought she looked very good in it.  And Mimi
looked great.

About Opal and Dixie: there seems to be a consensus that they dressed
together in the dark, Opal mistakenly taking Dixie's hat and grabbing
the curtains which she thought was her top on a hanger.

Dixie's dress looked familiar though.  I seem to faintly remember seeing
someone in a coat dress similar to Dixie's and thinking that it was a
coat and they would have a better-looking dress on underneath (Erica
maybe? Brooke?)

Men really have it lucky don't they?  The worst fashion gaffe they can
make is a wild-colored tie and matching cummerbund.

About the drab colors:  This *was* a fall wedding.  I think everyone was
just trying out their new fall fashions at the first formal occasion of
the season.

PS  Why don't we have a Bianca lottery???  I'm sure she's coming back
soon.  :-) :-) :-) :-) We can bet how old she'll be when she comes back.
The rate of PVGD seems to grow exponentially with the distance the
person is away from Pine Valley.  (And only afflicts people under the
age of 21.)
