Pat & Jerry’s wedding March 2, 1946
The wedding photographer captured this image of Mr. & Mrs. Wilton Forrest Garrett emerging from the church. I was eleven at the time, and this was the first wedding I attended. I must confess that the photographer was, to me, the most memorable part of the service. We were seated in the first row of the church. During the service the photographer came up the center aisle snapping photos. He then proceeded to climb over the front railing to get close-up shots. The minister stopped the service, turned toward the photographer, and told him that this was a sacred service; he must remove himself to the rear of the church and wait until the service was over before taking any more photographs.
