WEDDING AT THE LITTLE BROWN CHURCH

ON SATURDAY NIGHT SUE AND I ATTENDED THE WEDDING OF GEORGE DAWNAY AND SUZANNAH BEZZONE AT THE LITTLE BROWN CHURCH ON SIGNAL MTN. ACTUALLY THIS WAS THE SECOND CEREMONY FOR THE COUPLE. THEY WERE MARRIED IN COLORADO A FEW MONTHS AGO BUT THEY WANTED TO SHARE THEIR CELEBRATION WITH US IN CHATTANOOGA. SUZANNAH GREW UP IN THE CHATTANOOGA AREA WHILE GEORGE IS FROM ENGLAND BUT HAS SPENT ALOT OF TIME IN CHATTANOOGA AS A GUEST OF CESSNA DECOSIMO. GEORGE'S FAMILY FROM ACROSS THE POND WERE THERE EXCEPT FOR HIS SISTER SOFIA WHO IS ACTING IN A NEW PLAY IN LONDON. CESSNA LED THE CEREMONY AND THE RECEPTION WAS HELD AT HIS STUDIO DOWNTOWN. IT WAS ALL FANTASTIC.
