The night of August 16 found us at the rehearsal for Monica and Bram’s wedding. Theresa and Paul had come in from Minnesota, so we knew we were in for a fun evening. |  |
 |
The next day we followed the directions (which were MUCH better that the night before) and signs to the Ashby Inn. Located in Paris, Va. it was a beautiful garden setting for the wedding. | |
 |
Bram and his best man, Andy, waiting for Monica to walk down the aisle with her Dad. |  |
 |
Monica glowed throughout the day and looked beautiful, The ceremony was performed by their friend Lisa Beske. Readings by both fathers were also part of the moving ceremony. | |
 |
The Bridesmaids Paul, Melanie, and Theresa. | 
|
The entire wedding party |
||
Theresa DeGeest knew how to keep cool as she went about her duties as Matron of Honor. |
Paul DeGeest made a wonderful bridesmaid. |
|
Our new friends, Shelly and John, Bram’s cousins from Connecticut.
|
 |
The bride and groom with their parental units. |
| The “Inn dog” was less than impressed with the whole thing… |  |
|
 |
Greg was more than happy to wear his uniform, as Bram had asked, but changed into aloha shirt and slacks right after the ceremony. | |
| A trio played before and after the ceremony |  |
|
| The cake was cut, toasts were made, and eventually the newlyweds would end up in the “nuptial bed.”
Even heard a rumor that the bed had been short sheeted!! Can't imagine how that could happen. |

| Thanks a million to the wonderful Sherry Gardner (who will hopefully forgive me for de-constructing her page layout!) |
