RWBooneJr Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Two of the most wonderful people I have ever met are getting married today at their home in Falls Church, but have no power. Does anyone have a generator I can borrow? As you might imagine, everywhere I've called is out of them today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RWBooneJr Posted July 2, 2012 Author Share Posted July 2, 2012 Sorry for the delayed update. All I can say is that monavano and family are some of the nicest people I've ever spoken with. As you might imagine, Saturday was a bit of a mess after the storm, and cell service was spotty at best. Monavano graciously offered to let us borrow a generator, but by the time I got a hold of anyone with a car large enough to go get it, we already had two on their way form Manassas. Turns out, everyone loves the couple as much as I do, and help came pouring in on all fronts. The wedding ended up happening exactly as planned and, aside from the hum of some generators, you wouldn't have been able to tell anything was ever amiss. And the food was some of the best I can recall at a wedding. Valley Pig Pickin' catered the event and brought a whole smoked lamb. I had never had lamb done this way, and it's unbelieveable. It was basically like a pig pickin' but with a lamb that was sliced instead of pulled. It kind of made this Virginia boy wonder why we've been messing around with pork all of these years. The sides were great too, though I hope to never know the nutrition content of the mashed potatoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thistle Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Congratulations to the happy couple! when you have a wedding on a day like this, the stories can outweigh the inconveniences, & it's great that they had lots of friends to pitch in & help...
