Corey Wells

I mentioned way back here
HTML https://jackshouse.createaforum.com/general-discussion/easter-2018/<br
/> in the Easter Post that Corey and his girlfriend, Megan, were
pregnant.
At this point, they're expecting the baby the last week of Oct
or first of Nov, so I'm naturally hoping for a Halloween Baby.
Megan and Corey are getting married this Friday night. The
wedding starts at 7pm, with a reception to follow. No, it's not
going to be here. They've rented a venue that will handle both.
It's in Dallas, which will be reasonably convenient for her
family and ours, and very convenient for their friends. It's
going to be a small ceremony, with only a best man and bride's
maid, and Marcus will be standing up with Corey.
Dad's giving them a cruise to the western Caribbean for the
honeymoon. Both of them have good jobs and nice apartments, so
there's not a lot they need. Cathy did get them a set of copper
pans, but she's also giving them a print that she and I had in
our bedroom - a really nice, framed and matted silk screen by
Patrick Nagel.

Corey is now married, and everything went very well.
The reception went great. I was nice and socialized with her
family. We had a pretty traditional reception timeline, though
the first part went faster, since they went with a smaller than
normal wedding party. I was out for a while for the family
pictures, despite not having been part of the ceremony.
Corey beat my predictions my embarrassing me twice.
They had a good mix of music for the reception, with new pop,
classic rock, and even some country. The couple dance was to
Brad Paisley's 'We Danced'. The father/daughter dance was to
Joe Cocker's 'You Are So Beautiful', and then - Cathy being
Cathy - the mother/son dance was Guns N' Roses 'Sweet Child of
Mine'. Then the DJ announced their was going to be one more
family dance, and he asked me to join Cathy, and they played
time of my life (which I predicted was going to happen). They
started the music while I was walking to the front. Cat and I
used to have the first minute or so memorized, and we did pretty
good with it. I asked her, as I reached her if Russ was okay
with it, and she just said 'shut up and dance'.
Before the cake, Corey took the mic and explained that I was
actually his step-father who'd adopted him, and he dedicated
Mike and The Mechanics 'Living Years' to me. He joked that he'd
wanted to use Brad Paisley's 'He Didn't Have to Be', but Bobby
had done that before, and he (Corey) didn't want to risk me
getting his hands on him if he made me breakdown.
Joke was on him, though. I broke down anyway.
It really was a wonderful ceremony and a great reception, and
everyone really seemed to have a good time. As far as I could
tell, everything went really smooth. The kids stayed at the
Omni last night, and they'll have time to enjoy the amenities
and recover before they have to catch their flight for Miami to
catch their cruise.

Sounds like it was a beautiful wedding! That's another one of
yours married, Jack. :) More grandkids to come next!
Sorry, but you said Bobby had dedicated "He Didn't Have to Be"
to you before? But Bobby isn't married yet, right?

I've already announced that at least part of the impetus of the
wedding is that they are expecting about the first of November,
so more grandkids already on the way.
As for Bobby - no, he's still single. He dedicated the song to
me at a homecoming where he and his band were playing. I've
shared the details before, and I'll try to find them to share
again, or I'm sure they'll show up when we make a bio page for
him.

I am glad that everyone had a great time and that you got to
dance!
Aw nice that Cory used that song! You are supposed to cry on
weddings!
Aw I remember Bobby playing "Brad Paisley's 'He Didn't Have to
Be'" and I am sure I have that post somewhere, I just need to
find it. But you may have to write about it again!

Leti just asked about this, so I should mention that Cynthia
Luann Wells was born on 3 November 2018, making her four and
one-half months old now. She's called Cindilu (or Cindy Lu,
depending on which parent you ask).
