The Greatest Wedding of Doris Harding and Charles Bright
Dallas Fort Worth, Texas, USA: The joy spread to the reception ballroom at the Marriot Hotel in Fort Worth after a sacrament of marriage was performed by Pastor Emmanuel Botchway at Hope International Church in the early afternoon of September 20th, 2014. On that day, Doris Harding and Charles Bright breathed a huge sigh of relief when they saw hundreds of friends and relatives made it to their never-to-be forgotten wedding in the state of Texas.
It was amazingly to the couple for seeing the event organizers spent extra time by continuing the ode to the great expectations of Mr. and Mrs. Bright matrimony. Pastor Dr. Emmanuel Butchway meticulously performed the marriage ceremony at Hope International Church followed by a reception in the sumptuous Marriot hotel ballroom.
The couple believes that their wedding was not to impress anyone, but it was about redirecting their gaze toward Christ’s work through the word of God about marriage. However, the story was not a fairy tale, but it was an extraordinary event in their lives. It was a good-naturedly directed event.
The occasion had many activities set in the program. Most fascinatingly were the classic wedding toasts. Many friends and relatives were honored to make a toast. The wedding toast was one of the most formal of all wedding-related toasts in the Dallas Fort Worth metroplex. Almost everyone who made a toast reflected the school days and childhood days of both the bride and the groom.
There were some galleries of good wishes, perfect for celebrating the bride and the groom on their big day. The toast time occurred after all the guests had been provided with champagne, some of us with fruit-punch, as a nonalcoholic alternative. At a sit-down dinner, the toast was made as soon as everyone was seated after the couple arrived and allowed guests to orderly walk to the food and drinks at the food court and bar.
Just as everyone involved in the toast, the groom, Mr. Charles Bright, also offered a toast giving the true picture of his newly wedded wife. He gave out their relationship history and what he has done in terms of traditional settings before this big day. After welcoming the guests, the groom thanked those who helped organize and plan the event. He thanked the bridesmaids, the best man, and the groomsmen for the significant role they played. He turned to the entire guests and said that he has gained a wife and a companion for life.
The party started with the bride and the groom opening the dance floor. When the bride stepped onto the dance floor for their first dance, the song they choose to dance was a love song tune. It was a song that they choose deeply meaningful as a first dance song that reflects their relationship, their joy, their new life together. The bridesmaids, best man and many other guests surrounded the couple in a circle dancing together with them, demonstrating a trend of perennial favorite. The DJ shut down the music to allow the bride to give a vote of thanks.
Mrs. Bright then marched to the stage dancing elegantly and luxuriously dressed to deliver a fantastic and exceptional vote of thanks. She said, it was a privilege to be sharing their day with all of their friends and families who have been important to them during their lives. She first started dish out her thank you to God for everything in her life. She thanked her husband, Mr. Bright for making her life complete. She turned to her right and thanked her pastor, Dr. Botchway for his contribution to bless their fraternity of union. It was the first time among the Sierra Leone community in Texas a bride made such a hearty vote of thanks that was broad and clear. She was able to call dozens of individual names of those who contributed in one way or the other to her relationship with Mr. Bright. Mrs. Bright stepped back to her gallery with her luxurious suit.
The Texas Paddle then entered the stage after an interval announced by the chairman of the occasion, Mr. David Kessbeh. It is clear in our culture that devil dance is synthesis of West African culture. Therefore, Mr. and Mrs. Bright’s wedding could be counted as one of the dynamic and cultural complexities of contemporary Sierra Leone type of weddings.
The high table where the bride and the groom sat were chock full of super catchy and cleverly designs. A fashion that were incorporated in the most unlikely places like Hollywood type of pink color which made each detail so visually attractive and interesting. The bride determined not to overlook even the most insignificant detail but made sure that everything be just perfect as it was. The party continued till 3: 00 a.m.
