| Aaron & Deidire Mead Wedding: 07/14/2007 |
| Don't tell Aaron and Deidire Mead you can't have a blues band play your wedding reception. Wow! What a party. The Rum Creek Park Community Center in Rockford hasn't seen a one like this in a long time. Congratulations to Aaron and Diedire and a big Tailshaker thank you for letting us be part of your special day. Speaking of special, the musical highlight of the evening was young Christian Rutledge sitting in on guitar for a hot number with the band. Great job, Christian! Remember this kid, folks. You'll be buying his CDs someday.
Let the good times roll! |

|
 |
| Aaron and Deidire start the party. What a beautiful couple. |
|
And it didn't slow down.... |
 |
|
 |
| ...from there! |

Some captions just write themselves. |

| Aaron gets his groove on. Don't miss the bunny ears in the background on this one. |
|
Deidire! |

|
 |
| "I forgot something. And it's big." Inside band joke. |
|
"I'm gonna love you, like nobody's loved you, come rain or come shine..." Nice work, you two. |
 |
|
 |
| Enough of that. Let's have some fun! |
|
And fun we had... |

Sometimes the paparazzi drives Patrice crazy. |
 |
|
 |
| Speaking of crazy... |
|
Don't think we don't have fun doing this. |
 |
|
 |
| Michael and Dave figure out you really can take pictures of yourselves with these cameras. |
|
Diane has a little fun too! |
 |
|
 |
| Shhhhhhhh.....it's time for us to go home now. |
