Last week we spent a few days in Athens, Georgia which is a 2 day drive from San Antonio. We were invited to Marc and Theresa's wedding. Theresa is the daughter of Regina and Jim our great friends who live in Savannah, Georgia whom we visited with a couple of years ago. As is the custom in America the evening before the wedding (27 Sep) there is a rehearsal dinner where family and friends get together to enjoy and share in the upcoming nuptials. Marc's parents Francoise and David live in Tennessee and prepared an excellent spread of smoked BBQ meats. You can see the BBQ's which they brought with them from Tennessee.
The venue was at The Farmhouse Inn - At the Hundred Acre Farm which is located a few minutes drive from historic Madison, Georgia. The farm reminded us of Beaver Dam in Canada where we spent 21/2 great years.

Francoise and her mother-in-law Jean are great cooks and these are the magnificent desserts they prepared for us all. A great finish to a wonderful evening with lovely people and great food.
On 28Sep it was Marc and Theresa's wedding day. They were married in the chapel at the Athens Botanical Gardens.
The reception was held in the room under the chapel and here is Marc and Theresa thanking us all for joining them on their special day. To see more photos of the wedding please have a look at the DJs pictures.

Marc and Theresa are keen university football fans and as Theresa is a graduate of the University of Georgia and it was game weekend, it was fitting that the mascot from the Georgia Bulldogs joined in the festivities.
It was a great wedding and we wish Marc and Theresa every happiness.
More to follow on our time away,
Best wishes to all.
Bev and Ross
