The Wedding

After months of preparations and hard work, Jessica and Adam got married Saturday. 

It was a beautiful, touching, and a very emotional wedding!

Jonathan played his guitar and sang while a slide show played, picturing Jessica and Adam from babies until now.  He played and sang “The Wedding Song” for the mothers and grandmothers, then  “Forever” while the bridesmaids, flower girls, and ring bearer walked up the aisle.  Jonathan then played “The Bridal March” for the beautiful bride and her emotional father.  During the ceremony, Adam surprised Jessica with a song that he played and sang. 

John read the poem he wrote in Jessica’s honor.

After the receiving line and blowing bubbles at the happy couple, we took some pictures, then went to the grange for the brunch reception.  Everyone seemed to have a good time and we got a lot of nice compliments on the food.  There was a candy bar where people were supposed to fill up their favor boxes.

Later, we had a cook-out for family and the bridal party at our house.  We had planned to have sloppy joes and hot dogs, but we brought home so much ham from the reception, we didn’t need to make the sloppy joes.  We still have a lot of leftovers!  Jessica and Adam opened their presents then left for their honeymoon in North Carolina.

We were surprised and pleased to receive so much help from our kids and our friends.  I don’t know what we would have done without them!  We’re slowly getting back to normal after trying to get rested up after a week of very little sleep
