WTF Is A "Wedding Social"?
According to Manitoba lore, to help a couple get started in life together, they (or their parents) might throw a "wedding social" – a huge party to raise funds for the soon-to-be-married couple. It seems socials were a fairly new thing in the 1970's, but since then they've become a cherished province-wide tradition - and this offbeat couple assure us that this one, open to anyone 18+ with a dark sense of humour brave enough to show up, is gonna be LIT! Event Details:
Birthday Party!
"Bloody Hell!" as Evil Bastard would say, because he's turning -gasp!- **60**! [No really, we know he looks maybe 40 or so, they both do - but it's absolutely true, that photo above was taken 1 year ago!] Technically his birthday is in May, but to take advantage of this already momentous social, his birthday will be celebrated as well. There might even be cake! and presents! or maybe not! We're still working on that part. :p
