Agnew kept the groomsmen entertained with tales of his NFL days while the ladies rode the trolley to the church singing along to &#8220;Chapel of Love.&#8221;\u00a0 After the ceremony Rev. Agnew graciously allowed us to photograph in the usually off-limits area around the home on the church grounds.\u00a0 Then we took the trolley down to the beach in front of the Colony for some beautiful photos amongst the sea roses and sand. Jo and Joe were great sports, happily jumping on a rock wall or perching on washed up tree trunk or whatever else I came up with for photos. When we joined the guests, cocktail hour was well underway on The Colony&#8217;s relaxing lawn and porch.\u00a0 It was such a beautiful day that everyone was slow to go inside for dinner and dancing.\u00a0 Inside they found elegant tables and the jazzy tunes of the Delta Knights Band.\u00a0 Jo and Joe kicked off the dancing, and the dance floor was soon crowded with some of the best dancers I&#8217;ve ever seen at a wedding.<\/p>\n<p>It was a true pleasure to be a part of Jo and Joe&#8217;s spectacular day.\u00a0 Many thanks to them and to their friends and family for graciously welcoming me. Best wishes to the bride and groom for a lifetime of happiness and love.<\/p>\n<p>Below are some of the highlights from the day.\u00a0 To see more, check out this <a title=\"The Colony Hotel Wedding\"
