The Bride and her Daddy

From the time we arrived out at Champetre County, we contemplated the location for the wedding ceremony: inside the Saloon or outside in the Garden (the original plan). The weather forecast called for the possibility of a thunderstorm. The ceremony was at 3pm -- we would decide at noon. Considerably later than that, it was decided that we would go with the Garden idea since Rhea and Michael had their hearts set on it. Not a drop of rain fell -- up until Rhea began her walk down the isle. The entire time we stood outside for the ceremony, it rained. The bridal party giggled the entire time. Rhea and Mike snickered a bit too. The minute the documents were signed and we walked back down the isle, the rain stopped. It didn't rain the rest of the day. Thanks to the good sense of humor of the Bride and Groom, the silliness of the Bridal Party and the amazing talent of Sheryl who did hair and make-up for the girls -- no one could tell we had gotten so wet. Everyone's clothes, make-up, hair looked perfect the rest of the day. The only thing worse for wear was the temporary marriage license which dried by the next day.

I am so glad that hair and makeup stayed well for you all. I was soooo tired that I just wanted my pillow and bed by the time you girls started down the aisle. The bride and her bridal party were so easy to work with it made my long day easy. If only every wedding party I did went this well. All the joking and teasing sure helped to alleviate (Spelling?) any jitters Rhea had. Rhea made a beautiful bride and the rest of you girls are just what I like to call "HOTTIES"

Thank you to Sheryl who did a great job on all the girls and even fit in a badly needed hair cut for my brother Wade. Despite the rain, which seemed fine to this BC girl, it was a wonderful day. Rhea
