Last evening at 6:30 PM on the shores of beautiful Lake Harper, Dorothy Smith and Harvey Lee Whitmire were united in holy matrimony. Rev. Hershel Holliday, pastor of the Harper County United Methodist Church preformed the ceremony.
The bride wore a fabulous yellow pants suit of her own design and making. The three button, two pocket design was the delight of all those attending.
Hollis Wainwright, the groom’s great nephew served as best man. Ms. Sarajean Smith, the bride’s sister was maid of honor.
Music was prerecorded by Mr. Wainwright and consisted of the overture from The Marriage of Figaro by W. A. Mozart and the Intermezzo from Cavalleria Rusticana by Pietro Mascagni.
After the lovely, but short ceremony the crowd was directed up to the old Whitmire house, 1 Harper Lake Road, for a superb reception. Food was provide by Dorothy’s Café on three sawhorse and ply board tables delicately adorned with white table cloths and the flowers brought hurriedly up from the services. The center table had punch bowls, one on the far right with lime sherbet punch and on the far left an orange sherbet punch. Mrs. Jacob Overmeyer and her daughter Sally Beth poured from both ends.
The happy bride and groom are off on a honeymoon trip consisting of several cruises in far away places such as Germany, the Mediterranean, Australia, and Alaska.
They will reside in Harper where Dorothy operates Dorothy’s Café and Harvey Lee is resident fisherman and storyteller.
Many congratulations to the bride and groom. May God bless their union. And I can taste that lime punch. I wish I had some.
