Discount Wedding Supplies

Like most young couples we wanted a perfect wedding.  We wanted the right food and the right number of guests and the right people to toast members of the wedding party.  Although we went to great lengths to ensure that everything was near perfect or better, we still had a few imperfections.

It was a given that we would have a church wedding in our own church with our own pastor.  Many of the guests were people who knew us from the time we were growing up in our community.  Our teachers and principals were invited.  Our reception would take place in the quadrangle of our high school.  This area was green and lush and well kept.
Around the borders of the quadrangle were the healthiest looking tropical flowers you have ever seen. The table belonging to the bridal party would be on the stage while the other tables would be arranged in a semicircle around it.  Everything was perfectly laid out.

The ceremony went very well and the picture taking with the wedding photographer
went without a hitch.  The reception was about to begin and lo and behold the clouds seemed to pop open and the rain came down in torrents.  Everything had to be shifted to the nearby auditorium.  There was just enough time to safeguard against a total disaster. The decoration was shifted without a big loss. Thanks to fast moving and skilled coordination.

The limousine pulled up and the bridal party was greeted with cheers and laughter. The master of ceremony announced our arrival in a specially arranged order with the bride and groom entering last of all. We were so very happy to see the nicely decorated room.
My mind raced back to the attendance at the church versus the attendance at the reception. I wondered silently if everyone had signed the attractive wedding guest book with the color coordinated pen and ribbons.  This was our special day and we wanted to preserve the memories for a lifetime.
