wedding in the park

wombat got to go to her first (and probably only) wedding today. an aquaintence who is kind of involved with fnb got married in a park near our house today. we got invited the other day but for some reason zac thought the wedding started at 3pm so we thought we'd take wombat for a nice long walk around noon and tire her out so she'd be happy to sleep thru the afternoon. just before we headed out at 11:30am we discovered the wedding was at noon. wombat was all excited about leaving for her walk so we decided she'd have to go to the wedding.
we weren't really concerned about her being out of place there, just worried about how she'd be with dogs in the park (especially others that were off lead) and with a big group of people. she did VERY well. she did get aggressive a couple times toward other dogs she saw but she got smacked hard for it and we kept her very tight to us. she was great with people though and even small children. she sat very quietly thru the ceremony and did very well.
the vet recommended an obedience school not too far from here (train or car ride) so we're hoping that we will be able to socialize her with other dogs so she doesn't hurt one by accident or on purpose.

had to put in this shot of our friend posing with wombat in his lawn bowling/wedding attire:
