The Baltimore City Pipe Band were NOT part of the original band. Once you start noticing/counting how many times people say "flesh" during wedding vows, it tends to make you squirm in your seat. We also knew that we absolutely did not want any mention of "obeying" or the word "flesh" involved. We immediately knew we wanted to ask Robert's uncle Barry, a mattress salesman from Birmingham with an affinity for sarcasm, to officiate the wedding. We didn't have too many ideas for the ceremony going into the planning process, but what ideas we did have, we were sure of. The fireflies came out during the reception and danced along with us in the grass.
The setting perfectly captured our vision for a relaxed party filled with love, music and laughter. Being in the middle of a field, we also rented tables, chairs and the classiest restroom trailers I've ever had the pleasure of using. We rented a massive white tent from ABC Party and Tent Rental and the menfolk strung bistro lights from the poles, teetering at the top of dizzying ladders. The green valley made the perfect backdrop for our lively field party. This was the first time many of our guests had been north of the Carolinas and I was eager to show them my homeland. I always pictured getting married on my parents' farm in rural Maryland. Robert originally hails from Alabama and I from Maryland, so this wedding brought together friends and family from different regions and cultures. I was in need of a date to a sorority formal and pointed him out to one of my friends and told them to "bring me the big one with the mustache." We now live in Nashville with our fat pitbull TBone, and enjoy fixing up houses in our spare time. Our Story Hannah the Bride: Robert and I met in college, way back when.
