Almost Ruined Wedding

This post is only marginally sewing related (skip down for Sewing Related) but it is too funny not to share.  Of course, at the time, it didn’t seem quite so hilarious.

Rheeta Jordan

 

It’s about the wedding of my Aunt Rheeta’s delightful, sweet granddaughter Jordan who was married two weeks ago.

She has always worked tirelessly with her father, my cousin Jeff, who is pastor of Freedom Worship Center in Omaha. This spring she graduated from University of Nebraska.

The wedding was held at a lovely botanical garden, with all the natural beauty and wildlife of the area.  This pictures shows Jordan with her dearest friends and cousins.

Moments later, about 50 feet from the group, the photographer spotted this bridesmaid wannabe, dressed in matching black and white!

You can guess what happened next.

 

go

uh-oh!

 

And then…

 

run

RUN!!!

 

The girls were fleet of foot and made a clean getaway.  If not, I doubt even love could have brought the groom this close to his beautiful bride.

AT LAST!!!  Sewing related background-about 10 years ago, Aunt Rheeta brought Jordan, 14,  one of her precious granddaughters, to my house for a week of sewing instruction and family fun.

She fell in love with my Brother Pacesetter 8500 and sewed on it all week.  We had a fabulous time–that was an earlier session of Nana Camp.  Now that she is  a new wife, I hope she can find  time to enjoy sewing again.
