Suzie and Josh were married at Bethel Baptist Church in the church his family attended for many years. The reception followed at Ledbetter Lodge at Camp Daniel Boone, which is Boy Scout camp in Western NC. Suzie was so excited about the wedding! Her excitement was contageous. You couldn’t help feel the anticipation and sheer joy on the day of the wedding. She was so anxious and nervous before the wedding. We had to clear the dressing area, give her some air and her sister delivered a great pep talk. Suzie was crying so hard walking down the aisle and then when she saw Josh, a big smile! Josh’s father, who is a minister, officiated the ceremony. After the ring exchange, he said she kept saying, “Can I kiss him yet?” and she jumped up in excitement.
The reception was lots of fun thanks to Randy from Music Explosion as the DJ. During the first dance, Suzie was trying hard to convince Josh to let her dip him. He kind of gave in reluctantly. From the macherena, congo line and the clogging, Suzie was rocking out! Josh’s grandparents are really into clogging, they even have the special shoes. I haven’t ever been at a wedding where the grandfathers were tearing it up on the dance floor. The guys that decorated Josh’s truck were particularly ugly. There was Vaseline everywhere! I’m sure the two weeks they spent in Hawaii helped him get over it.
