    Didn't Heather just recently post some shots of a bride with a gun? I thought they were pretty unique. But yeah, folks if you don't know anything else about guns, just know that you treat them as if they are loaded until they are inspected and cleared. If you don't know how to do that then leave them in the case.

    Ha ha, nope.

    I have had several weddings that feature guns. It is something about us Alaskans, bears and the independant spirit I suspect.

    But when I am around, they are not allowed to be pointed at anybody. Ever. Loaded, unloaded... whatever. That was just stupid.
    With a hubby in Law Enforcement, I am sure careful.... But familiar.

    One wedding, all the groomsmen wore handguns as part of their outfits and immediately after the ceremony they shot them.......... That one was a bit scary for me since they were all imbibing. I was nervous...


    Here are some of our recent ones:

    Same dad, same gun... different daughter's wedding. He even had the shotgun inscribed with the couples' names.... Fun-nee!

    Ha ha, note the handgun...
