I'm sorry I didn't make that clear. It was DEFINITELY the bride's side of the family that brought the Yankee influence to our southern plantation (I can say it 'cause I'm a Yankee). The "Larry David" guy also tried to slip my husband $20 to park in a place that would block EVERYONE else. :-) We loved the bride's side, too! It takes all kinds to make weddings memorable! :-) Phyllis, I'm not a writer like you are. I have been keeping notes, though. One of these days, someone will want to do a reality TV show about a wedding venue. I don't want them to film it here and I certainly don't want to star in it but I do have a lot of stories to tell! :-) Wendy -------------------------------------------------- From: "Larry" <soupcan5@yadtel.net> Sent: Monday, July 26, 2010 12:27 PM To: <lovelace@rootsweb.com> Subject: Re: [LL] Mon Jul 26, 2010 > Hey Folks! > I would like to point out that the unusual entertainment and the other > notable guests were from the brides side!!!!!
