It already looks like a wedding venue.
We couldnt think of anywhere more special than a home wedding.
It just felt right.
It was made all the more meaningful when her father walked her down the aisle.
It was incredibly special, considering his health scare last year.
I walked down to a strings version of Georgia on My Mind by Ray Charles.
My dad won his Oscar for playing [Ray] in 2005.
At 10 years old, I was his plus one and got to share that special moment with him.
There wasnt a dry eye in the house when we came down the aisle.
I was in awe of her beauty and inspired by Jamies example of fatherhood, he recalled.
During Jamies health scare, the whole family went through and overcame so much.
Seeing all of us make it to this moment just opened the floodgates.
It was beautiful and unlike anything I could have imagined.
