Our Wedding Party

Our Cake

Mr & Mrs, Charlotte Country Club

I returned to Charlotte on 28 April, after working practically every day since returning to Manchester.
In that time A has arranged our wedding, to which we have invited 16 people.  Her family, my Dad, and those who would have been our bridesmaids and groomsmen.
The night before our wedding, Lynn & Larry's neighbours hold a dinner for us in their backyard.  With so few people coming to our wedding, this was a wonderful night of celebration.  I am thankful for Mrs. Mrs Simmerville, Masters, & Parsons.
We get married at Christ Episcopal, where A grew up going to church.  The plan was to get married in the garden of the church, but weather had other plans.  The coldest wettest day on May saw the whole wedding party head inside the church and hold the service at the altar.  Our reception was in a private room at Charlotte Country Club, where Don is a member.  While there were people who I would have liked to have been there, I am more than grateful for those that did come - from Charlotte, New  York, Australia, Samoa & Ireland.
Those at the wedding kicked on to Thomas Street Tavern at all hours, while A & I retired to the Dunhill for the night.
The following morning Lynn & Larry held a brunch for us at their place with most of the people from Friday night returning.
