She started saying "No, no" after the Reverend asked if she accepted her fiancee. The audience did not know that at the time, Brenda was trying to shoo away a couple of bees that had flown out of her bouquet. We were informed by the Reverend that indeed, she did accept her husband. joyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07972508806527606747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2442063056672240555.post-25984525959104242292015-09-22T12:21:54.490-07:002015-09-22T12:21:54.490-07:00Congratulations to you, Lee, and to the bride and ...Congratulations to you, Lee, and to the bride and groom!
