Their parents thought they were crazy…  A July 4th wedding…cherry, apple and blueberry pie instead of wedding cake?  Hold the reception at a public park with brats, burgers, baseball and volleyball, they asked???  Hmm.  Lindsay wondered, were they crazy?

Lindsay bought her dress off the rack… The bridesmaids’ dresses however, were sewn by a professional seamstress (a mom of one of the bridesmaids).   Aren’t they fun?

The tune, “God Bless the USA” played as the new Mr. and Mrs. walk out of the church and into a sun-drenched, gorgeous day.

Wondering what was so funny when they knelt down during the ceremony…Mike and Lindsay were eventually let in on this practical joke (and the jokester) and had a good laugh themselves.

Guests could roam within the park, join in on a game of volleyball, baseball, frisbee golf, play cards, or just relax and eat at picnic tables, decorated with red, white and blue balloons, bunting and tablecloths.  Young and old alike, everyone was having a blast!

No worries about the dress!  It’s all about the fun.  Don’t you just love to see the bride and groom enjoying their party?

Mike and Lindsay’s wedding even made the news.  Here’s Mike in his Army uniform, pretending not to see his bride in her dress as the photo was taken before the wedding.

Are you having a themed wedding or have been to one?  Tell us about it in the comments.

Have a happy July 4th everyone!  Enjoy the weekend, see you Monday.
