OK, the title is stretching it a bit...but they did meet while Charles was living in a travel trailer. AND we first met Aubrey in his trailer when we came to visit. Anyway--they are MARRIED!! The wedding was lovely but not without its interesting points.
The Best Man was Jeffrey Burkholder, Charles's cousin on his mother's side. Problem is, he is currently a resident of Kenya in Southern Africa. He has just finished up his second tour in the Peace Corps. He couldn't get back for the wedding, and Charles didn't want anyone else (I agree, btw). So it was decided to put a large portrait of him on a stand beside the groom and at the reception. He also videoed the "Best Man Toast". Problem arises because said portrait never got done. So 2 hours before the wedding, we gotta get one made pronto. I found an online picture of him in a tux at his brother's wedding last year. We send that one to Walmart for printing and a frame and- Hey Presto!- portrait done.
My sister, Connie got turned around bringing our mother to the wedding. She ended up on the opposite side of Denton. She rolled in 3 big minutes before the Bridal Walk began. Whew! The ring bearer, Aubrey's nephew, didn't want to be there or to walk down the aisle with the ring. It got done and his refusal was kinda cute. On the other hand, the flower girl, Laura (Charles's 2nd cousin by Tracy) was lovely and gave a wonderful performance. The wedding was lovely...the wedding couple were amazingly beautiful/handsome...the location just right. Still waiting on pictures, but when they come...
