Nine Weddings on New Years Eve

Dec 31

Posted by Gordon Nelson in Minister, Weddings | No Comments

When I think of the most memorable New Years Eve I immediately think of 1999.  That was the year I performed nine weddings on New Years Eve.  I do think that was a record – at least it was a record for me for the most weddings performed in one day.  I started the day with a dawn wedding and the ended with the last wedding being a double wedding – at midnight.

I can’t think of anything I would rather do on New Years Eve than to help couples begin their life together.

Fortunately in 1999 there wasn’t any ice or snow that day so getting to each wedding wasn’t a problem.

There was one New Years Eve I remember where there was so much ice and snow that I barely made it to my wedding in Grapevine.  It took about 2 hours to get there instead of 20 minutes.   However the joy on the faces of the bride and groom and the compliments from the guests made it all worthwhile.

I wish you all a very PROSPEROUS and HAPPY NEW YEAR and if I can assist you with your wedding plans for 2010 please call me. . . 817-247-1706

New Year’s Eve Wedding

Dec 30

I an so excited to be returning to the Fort Worth Stockyards to perform a wedding on New Year’s Eve at Cowboy Church.

Owning the Stockyards Wedding Chapel for 9 years has given me a love for the historic Stockyards.  It has been my privilege to perform ceremonies at some of the finest locations there such as Billy Bob’s Texas, the River Walk, Lonesome Dove, the Rodeo at Intermission, Cattleman’s, the Stockyards Hotel, H3Ranch, the Museum, The Texas Cowboy Hall of Fame, the Grapevine Vintage Train, Pearl’s, Miss Molly’s, and even on horseback on Exchange Avenue. 

If Western settings is your idea for a perfect wedding then you will love the Fort Worth Stockyards and I would love to be part of your wedding as the minister.
