wedding
the groom ordered their wedding
clothes, top hat, tails and cane no
less, far ahead of the ceremony.
When the regalia arrived it was
minus the groom's dress shirt.
This was two days before the
ceremony and there was no way a
matching shirt could be scared
up. A 'bit of hell was raised with
the store and the store's gear
supplier flew the shirt in by
chartered airplane to the high
school parking lot, where the
store picked it up.
But all this is mere small
liotatbes. The important thing is
that the bride was beautiful (and
the groom was too). They had a
lovely and moving ceremony at
which they promised to be friends
as well as husband and wife. They
both had tears in their eyes when
they repeated their vows and so
did quite a few of their guests.
The sun was out and the wind
even died down for a few minutes
as the bride and groom stood in
front of the blossoming lilacs.
P.S. Yes, the father of the bride
got his teeth in time.
