DBLorgan Wedding moment one of many to always remember in my heart....

The large white tent set next to the aged red barn all decorated patiently waiting for two women to celebrate this moment they had patiently waited for. Years they have been in love and drove with all their family from Ohio to honor me by marrying them.

As we drove up the driveway mother nature had been making herself known since early day. My Scotsman and I have done this so often and words aren’t necessary between us. He knows, we are going to make this fun. I will be given spontaneous things to do as I am always. Why, because my angelic entourage surrounds us too.

Friends and loved ones are coming and never even minding the holding of an umbrella to walking under the protection of the white canvas tent.  I would smile and say now remember it is such good luck to have it rain on your wedding day. They laughed and just were so happy to be with my brides they just didn’t care.  The paranoid dj had to be reassured I would most assuredly take care of his equipment that was connected to my robe. Haha… he has no idea does he?!

Well all were seated two excited women were being escorted to the tent one by her brother and the other by her father. Both men knew they would be welcoming the other to their families.  My thoughts were being guided to the surprise moments to take place. My angelic entourage was with me and no one knew but my Scotsman.

Some sitting in their chairs laughed saying.. you are really planning things aren’t you. I laughed and said.. yes I am..this is going to be a ceremony that will make them smile and laugh as they remember it on every anniversary.

Here they are… as I walk up to them both before they make their entrance. Touching them and calming them to remember I have no rules.. This is their moment, and I was taking this time to have the wind calm and the rain be a soothing calming energy to surround us all. Then I said… now follow me lets have a wedding..

I welcomed all with my playful way and father and brother stood by their beloved sister and daughter waiting for their moment.  I explained how precious it was that they were chosen to escort these lovely women .Now I wanted them to welcome them to their families.. Oh, not by a hug, but by stepping with me out into the rain and dancing with the other. The look of surprise and laughter from them and all their families and friends just echoed through the hills of Skaneatolis.

They playfully danced in the rain with the woman that was going to be a part of their family.. I said if a family can laugh and love each other and dance in the rain what a blessing it is for all..

Yes, that was one moment.. One of many that I will always remember. Let's say the joy surrounded us from beginning to end and I did keep them under the tent for the rest of the ceremony.. lol

I love my job....

and my Scotsman  disconnected my precious microphone returning it to the worrisome dj and brought me my warm coat to surround me as we walked off laughing to each other "That was sooo fun".. they will always remember!!!
