Me: Today was a fun and well executed surprise for Pat & Bob's 50th wedding anniversary! Behind this 5 ft x 7 ft homemade poster of their wedding party were their good friends Sally M. (maid of honor) and Sally P. (bridesmaid) and Andy (Sally V's husband and Bob's best friend & engineer co-worker from NASA).
Here we are hiding behind the poster waiting for Rod to lead Pat & Bob out of the house.
Their reaction to the poster and then the shock of us and their best friends appearing.
Lots of smiling, laughing and hugs!!
The ladies even brought their pink bridesmaid dress and head piece. Love that!
Mary Mia, Rod and the girls coordinated the surprise. Bob and I flew in from Phoenix. Andy and Sally drove from Minnesota and Sally M. flew from Maryland. Such a special day to reflect back on their wedding day and hear stories of how they all met, college days and the years that followed.
Bride and groom cake topper from 50 years ago.
The celebrating continued all day with croissants in the morning, sandwiches for lunch and anniversary cake for dessert.
Cake & a kiss. The beautiful bride and groom.
Congratulations on 50 years! Sounded like a perfect day for them in 1964 and it was a perfect day celebrating them in 2014.
Here is a video link of the surprise…
