You are invited to a picnic in Maine.......SURPRISE it is a wedding!!
What can be more fun that getting invited to a backyard picnic on a lovely day in Maine??? How about a SURPRISE wedding! That's right, none of the guests would have suspected. They were so busy trying to decide what they would cook to bring and share, that the thought of a wedding never entered their mind. How fun is that?
Michelle and Doug wanted to have a wedding with a few of their closest friends and family, they wanted them to be relaxed and they wanted everyone to have a good time. When the guests arrived, they were enjoying the food and fun, and Rev. Heather just showed up and mingled with the gang as a "friend" of the couple. At the appointed time, Rev. Heather called the group to come over to a pretty tree, the location that Doug and Michelle had chosen to say their vows. Once the guests came to the appointed area, they were still bewildered, then all of a sudden, they realized that Heather was a minister, and in fact, there was going to be a wedding!
Rev. Heather said," I went to the appointed place and called everyone to gather around - the
Bride's father is half way through his chmeo for Hodgkin's Lymphoma. He has
always been the support of his family . Her parents lit right up when they found out it was a wedding and
the father of the bride cried. (Mother of the bride tries valiantly not to, but
was only marginally successful). It was a huge surprise to the guests and the
looks on their faces was priceless. A collective jaw drop straight to the grass.
Both bride and groom were beaming and everyone was very happy."Great job keeping the surprise! I wish the new Mr. & Mrs. Long and their family a lifetime of happiness.
