They did it! My brother in law and my friend are now husband and wife. It was a beautiful ceremony and even with a hiccup, it turned out great. The reception was fantastic with the music, food, and friends.

Let me be the one who calls you baby
All the time
Surely you can take some comfort
Knowing that you’re mine
Just hold me tight, lay by my side
and let me be the one who calls you
Baby all the time

It was a great and beautiful wedding! Their song was ‘Smother Me‘ by The Used. I loved the song; I think it was the perfect choice for them. We’re so happy for them and we wish them the best!
