Anne was escorted down the aisle by her son, Michael Bone. Her attendants were Laura Smith and Carolyn Bone. Christopher Bone was the ringbearer. Alanna deVegter was the wedding co-ordinator (and was dressed to co-ordinate with the bride, naturally). The ceremony took place underneath the live oak trees on the bluff and was performed by Reverend Rush of Isle of Hope Methodist Church. The ceremony was capped off with a kiss between the bride and groom and a simultaneous firing of Michael Curran's cannon, which caught many of the guests by surprise.
The reception was next door at my parents' home. The lanterns in the tree, low country fare, and music on the porch set the tone for a laid back night. Anne and Glenn danced to Paige Johnson singing "At Last" and Anne's brother, Steve, graced us all with "Mack the Knife."
As anticipated, fireworks appeared across the river on Skidaway Island as well as furthur south near Richmond Hill.
The night was capped off with Austin singing for a smaller group on the porch and night swimming. Check out Wesley's bruise from the antics--proof that he can still do a flip!
Ode to CrabBone
Anne Bone, Anne Bone
Let the truth be known
Would crab each day o'the year
even with a roach in her ear!
Has schemed and tricked
many "Fools of April."
She gives it her all--
Nothing ever piecemeal.
Anne Bone, Anne Bone
Belongs on the throne.
Her immaculate taste
will always be known.
She'll cook you popcorn for dinner
and make you one of her own
That wonderful, magical
Anne Bone, dear Anne Bone.
Anne Bone, Anne Bone
Who could have known
How life could turn up
THE love of of your own
How lucky we are
to count you close as our kin
To be here tonight
as you begin once again...
