Wedding






Last Saturday was the wedding of the son of my best friend of 41 years Sandra. She has a beautiful house and wooded acreage and the wedding was held in her back yard. They had big white tents with strings of lights and japanese lanterns throughout for the reception. A creek runs through the back of the property with a footbridge over it and the ceremony was held there. At the part where the question "doe's anyone object" a voice came around the side of the house "now just hold on" It was Nearly Neil a Neil Diamond impersonator. He sang a verse of a song and then said he would be back later. The guests were cracking up. It had been an emotional ceremony up to then with the parents welcoming the bride and groom into their respective families and this was a needed comic relief. The ceremony was concluded and then after a little while we had a wonderful dinner of pasta's and salads made by Sandra and her helpers. After the speeches we had Nearly Neil back to sing for almost 2 hours and then danced the night away. It was so much fun.
