Guys:
After seeing the Wedding Picture photos I thought I'd re-share my wedding night experience from back in March 2013. No not MY Wedding Night, but a total strangers. I was on my way to a local Friday night car show almost 4 years ago while driving in my 57 and I saw someone trying to wave me down to tell me something. This guy dressed in a Tux had finally got my attention, so I pulled over and he told me his problem. Seems like he was to be the "Best Man" at a Buddy's wedding and on the way to the wedding the groom's freshly restored 21 window VW Bus broke down. The VW just couldn't hold the wedding party high enough off the tires and two of them blew out after traveling only a couple of miles. He asked me if I would be willing to transport the Bride & Groom from the wedding being held at the same Church my wife goes to about 20 miles to the reception cruise in Newport Beach, CA. I thought, what the heck I can go to a car show just about any night of the week, but driving a couple of newlyweds to their wedding reception would be kind of neat. And it was. The Groom is a City of Los Angeles Firefighter and his crew and friends had gone all out to make the wedding really special. Following the wedding a Piper in Kilts piped them out of the Church and down the steps to my 57. Meanwhile, the wedding party, invited guests and several photographers were busy taking after wedding photos, throwing rice and comments to the newlyweds. Later after the inside the church photos were taken it was time for getting into the back seat of my 57, no small trick due to the wedding gown. After a bunch of those photos we took off for Newport Beach, driving down Pacific Coast Highway through Huntington Beach and then driving out onto Balboa Island in Newport Beach where the Reception Cruise ship was waiting for them to cruise around Newport Harbor. As I pulled up to let them out at the Reception, they asked me to open the headers and needless to say I was happy to oblige.
It seems to me that helping others to have a great time on a special occasion is a good way to use and share your pride & joy All in all a great way to spend a Friday night cruising in my 57 and helping out a couple of newlyweds.
