Wedding party in trickling in.

10:23 – Wedding begins.

10:50 – David and I get up to play and sing. Two songs. Stood behind the wall of groomsmen so I was very happy not to be most visible. Singing went well. Did not croak or pass out. Could not look at bride during the singing. She was worshipping and it would’ve made me cry. Then I would’ve croaked.
