Hello All,

Tonight's wedding was at the Sharon Woods Heritage Village in Sharonville. This is group of houses and buildings dating from the early 19th century that have all been moved from their original locations because of development and urban sprawl. The chapel was originally built in the mid-eighteen hundreds and was very simple but very sweet.

Josh and Cheryl had a fall theme for their wedding that included burnt orange dresses for the ladies and orange vests and ties for the gentlemen. The Bride wore a really neat dress that was a bone color of white with many small beads and lots of lace surrounding the extra long train.

They included a poem that was written by Mark Twain. I have included it here because it is really very good.

A marriage...makes of two fractional
lives a whole;
it gives to two purposeless lives
a work, and doubles the strength
of each to perform it;
it gives to two
questioning natures
a reason for living,
and something to live for;
it will give a new gladness
to the sunshine,
a new fragrance to the flowers,
a new beauty to the earth,
and a new mystery to life.

Good Luck and God Bless....... Rev. BB
