Brad & Jen’s Wedding
So, Saturday I had the honor of performing the wedding of two of our great friends, Brad and Jen. It was a beautiful evening for an outdoor wedding. After a week-long heat wave, a brief “cool” front moved through taking the mid-90 temps down to the lower 80’s.
The setting was beautiful…the Oakhurst Garden at Minnetrista. The families did an excellent job with the decorating and it was just a wonderful moment. Except for two things…
1. There just happened to be a dog show going on across the street. Right as Jen was walking down the aisle, the dogs woke up and began to loudly bark. I did my best to roll with it and made a quick reference to the dogs joining in the celebration.
2. The mic I was wearing kept cutting in and out. The sound guy just decided to let it keep going in and out rather than just killing it. It was quite distracting. The battery pack was not in a convenient location for me to get to, otherwise I would have turned it off. So, I would try and compensate for the dead mic, and then it would cut back in.
However, the hilarious moments really fit this couple. And, at the end of the ceremony, their marriage was official. It was a great night. Now, Emily and I are just sad because Brad and Jen moved to Columbus.
