We had an inside look
at this wedding - why you ask - because Melody, one of the Kennedy
Corridor staff members, was the maid of honor at Eunice and Mike's
wedding. Eunice took on the task of putting together this wedding. It
started with the plans of who was going to do what. Everyone came to the
bat and struck homeruns - Eunice's sister, Kim, made a two-tier cake from
scratch...no, not any old yellow cake with icing, but the most delectable
sweet potato cake - what a pleasant surprise on that first bite. Melody,
her best friend and maid of honor, was right there at Eunice's beck and
call. The telephone never stopped ringing. It was Eunice, "Is Melody
there?", "Melody, how do we do this?, "Should we make the flowers?", "What
about the programs, the bridal registry?" Yeah, what about those
programs! - Melody has a desktop publishing business called Bells &
Whistles, an appropriate name describing how she gets on that computer and
rings every bell and blows every whistle to produce the cutest bridal
shower wish lists and the most elegant wedding program designs. You name
it, you got it. Oh no, it does not stop here...Eunice and Mike are smart
folks. They knew how to utilize their family and friends to enjoy the
journey to their wedding day. Next, we have Eunice's grandmother,
Mrs. Elizabeth Fleming, who took on the task single-handedly to - you
guessed it - make Eunice's wedding gown! When the doors opened at the
church, in walked Eunice. She looked beautiful, beaming with excitement
and complete and utter joy. Mike looked down the aisle with the biggest,
roundest eyes you've ever seen. Grandmother, you are a success - Eunice's
dress fit absolutely perfect with soft white satin roses framing her lower
back with a tulle train cascading from the roses on her gown which had
short sleeves and a scoop neck. Kim did her make-up. Nothing else
could have made her any more complete.
Eunice was the cynosure for sure. Mike and Eunice said their vows,
exchanged rings, and sealed their promises with a kiss. Now its mom's
turn... Ms. Cecelia Fleming stepped up to the bat and provided that
almighty
financial backing for their reception site which was held at the scenic
94th Aerosquadron in College Park, Maryland.
To God be the glory!
