The rings were tucked away in their boxes with care...
After church and another small bite to eat, she was off to the hairdresser to get her beautification on. With her locks curled to perfection and her make-up done to accentuate and not over-amplify, she was back home in a flash to get on that dress that laid in hiding for so long.
The ceremony went according to plan, not a hair out of place, and if there was we just laughed. The bridesmaids came in to set the pace in anticipation for the star of the show. The groomsmen looked dashing in their handsome suits. Sweating in a hot little country church packed with possibly 300 folk, the crowd stood for the bride to show her face and stand center stage.
Minute after minute it all came to pass, the welcome, the vows, a beautifully written song, the exchanging of rings, first communion, first kiss, and finally "Ladies and Gentlemen I present to you Mr. and Mrs. David Broyles."
Happy and ready to celebrate with friends, smiling and laughing at their love for each other and all of those who have loved them throughout the years, they danced.
They made the most of it all, relishing in the moments that passed until it was all said and done. They rode off into the sunset in a trooper of a Geo Tracker to start their lives together.
Well she's still a Cooper by blood, but she's become a Broyles by choosing to love one as a husband. She was a beautiful bride. My sister Katie.

My new brother Dave didn't look to shabby either eh? Very glad they found each other to marry!
All to God
