Amanda and Tony

   
Amanda and Tony Saccitello
 A little after 4 in the afternoon on March 10th, 2012 in a garden in the town of Bogart, Georgia, all eyes turned to the bride who had just made her appearance at the far end of the garden path. All eyes were on the bride. That's how it always is. The guests all stand and turn to drink their fill of the beauty of the bride. The gasp of that moment. We all turned and looked.
     Except for one person. The mother of the groom told me afterward that when everyone else stood and turned to look at the bride, she did not. The mother of the groom kept her eyes on her son – her thrill was going to be to see his reaction the second he saw his bride.
     The guests stood, Tony looked down the path. His mom watched Tony's face. And she knew the moment Amanda came into view because Tony's eyes instantly filled with two big tears! The gasp of that moment!
The Groom and Bride and their Moms
     Happy third anniversary to Amanda and Tony – may you continue to bring tears of joy to each other and to the rest of us who love you so!
