This was another wedding yesterday, May 19, 2018.
It was the same day as the actual Royal Wedding at Windsor of Prince Harry to Meghan Markle, but this event was in Georgetown, District of Columbia, U.S.A.
And it was the almost royal wedding of our little friend, Suzanne (half English) to the enormous love of her life, sweet Michael. Suzanne is a grownup now of course, but we met her when she was born.
Her Mom is from England (of the sweet, elegant, but lots of fun variety) and her Dad was an all American boy who spread his delightful brand of happiness all the way across the ocean and back to our house in rural Virginia.
The wedding was spine-tingling and tear provoking, just the way a true-love marriage should be.
And there she was – the most radiant beautiful bride!
Suzanne’s Mom walked her down the aisle because unfortunately, her Dad had passed away. How Terry would have loved to see Suzanne find such happiness, and to have the ceremony there in his favorite church!
One giggling moment was when Michael tried to put the wedding ring on the bride’s right hand! That makes him “ours” for sure and something to share laughter about in later years.
No, I did not get to see the big royal wedding at Windsor, but this more than special occasion was a deeply meaningful, exceedingly joyful, Almost Royal Wedding that may have been was even better!
