The Wedding Reception






Jesse and Brittany had a wonderful trip to Macchu Picchu for their wedding, and the reception on June 26 was a well-deserved celebration after all the traveling and planning (and hard work to get time off for the trip). The reception was on Watts Bar Lake at the home of Bryce and Sue, friends for almost 40 years. They were gracious enough to share their huge lawn and great new dock and boathouse for the celebrants. Jesse shared his home brew (in bottles and keg), and the event was catered by Green Life, where he works. We got to meet some of the relatives and friends we hadn't met before, and got to reacquaint with some we hadn't seen in quite a while.

The huge tent was big enough to accommodate all the tables and food for 100 guests (and even a small table for the little ones -- granddaughter Madison and great-niece Samantha). The photo booth (in lieu of a guest book) was a big hit, and will be a great memory lane trip for years to come. There was lots of laughter and fun, a beautiful slide show from the wedding trip to Peru, and lots of catching up for the friends of the bride and groom. When the crowd dwindled to about 10 people, the guys jumped in the lake for an after-party swim. Rumor has it that the parents of the groom didn't come into the house till 5:00 a.m., so it must have been fun! Jesse made it to the passenger seat of the Blazer (see top photo), but didn't make it back out till 9:00 a.m. Sunday.
