The Bride was just gorgeous, and her Grandma shed a tear in joy following the ceremony.
So this was a first, after playing for 38 years for weddings, the Groom did not show. How this Bride handled this devastating set of circumstances was beyond class, and grace. She handed her bouquet to her Grandmother, who had flown in for the wedding from overseas, turning the wedding into a vow renewal ceremony for her Grandparents! She translated the entire ceremony, for the minister, and they renewed their vows. It was amazing. I played all the same music for them, adding in a few older songs, and it turned completely over to a celebration of their 56 year marriage. Unbelievable, and so classy. I will never forget it.
