was created especially for With Love From, Mom and Dad Smith June 20, 2002 {pg3} The lovely couple, Jennifer Smith and William
Johnson, met about 2 years ago. They decided after dating and getting to
know one another as well as any two people can to take the leap! Yes, today is the "Big Day" for
Jenny and Bill.
It has finally arrived after "beary" much planning. Let's recall the
planning stages and all that needed to be done. {pg4} There was so much to think about and to
do to make the wedding day of Jenny and Bill the most celebrated occasion of their lives. They had been dreaming about their special
day for many months. Just a few of the
many preparations that would have to be made for the "beary big day"
would be to pick the date, reserve the church, and plan the honeymoon. {pg7} First, the date to be married must be
determined. The couple agreed the perfect day would be June
20, 2002 at 6:00 PM. Next, where the two would take their vows
to be married. This would be one of their most important decisions, one that
needed to be made well in advance. They decided that the Church would be the perfect setting. {pg8} Of course, they would have to reveal who
would be the attendants on their very distinctive day. After much consideration, their choice for
the Maid of Honor would be Lorrie and the Best
Man would be Mark. A reception would be held at the Country Club with approximately 200 guests in attendance. {pg11} There were still so "beary"
many things yet to plan since they wanted everything to be absolutely perfect.
They could not "bear" anything less.
Jenny and Bill
were having so much fun making arrangements that time passed "beary"
quickly. {pg12} Needless to say, the two were "beary"
excited and proceeded to send out invitations to all their friends and
relatives that they wanted to share in what would be the most meaningful day of
their lives. {pg15} They ordered their flowers from Blooming Florist and made arrangements for Elvis Presley to be the entertainment at the
reception. Their wedding rings were carefully picked
out and purchased from Best Jewelery. {pg16} Jenny and Bill still needed a place to live after they were
married. Would it be an apartment, a condo, a house? After searching for what seemed the impossible mission, they
finally found the "ideal" home to begin their life together. Their "beary" first domicile together
would be 555 Hanford in Livonia. {pg19} The anticipation was overwhelming for the
couple, but after months of careful planning, the "Big Day" finally
arrived. Jenny and Bill pledged their love in front of many well wishers
and loved ones. Pastor John officiated at the ceremony. {pg20} Their reception was happy and fun for all. The guests enjoyed the food, music, and
cake. Most of all, they were happy for the
newly married couple and were pleased to share that glorious day with Jenny and Bill. {pg23} Their best man, Mark,
gave a toast and presented Mr. &
Mrs. William Johnson. Everyone wished them love, happiness and lifelong fulfillment for
ever after. {pg24} Jenny and Bill had thought a lot about their honeymoon and
wanted it to be a "beary" memorable experience. Would it be to some exotic land, a skiing
trip in the mountains, somewhere warm and sunny, or cold so they could cuddle
in front of a fire? They finally decided on Bay Beach, Florida, where they had so much fun and
excitement, they could not "bear" to see it end. {pg27} They knew their actual
"honeymoon" couldn't last forever, but their life together was just
beginning. So they returned to their
"love nest" in Livonia, Michigan with
many mementos to show everyone back home. {pg28} Congratulations, Jenny
and Bill!
May you never forget your splendid wedding day and may all the love you
are sharing now grow deeper with each passing day!
