~Please read this beautiful letter that was written by our dear friend Marty Martel~
T.G. SHEPPARD & KELLY LANG BECOME MR. & MRS. T.G. SHEPPARD
A NIGHT OF HAPPINESS & TOGETHERNESS
On August 20th at 7:30pm in Gallatin, TN. As the sun set over beautiful Old Hickory Lake, there was music and happiness all around the guests who were invited to one of the most beautiful homes on the lake, to celebrate the wedding of our friends, Kelly Lang and T.G. Sheppard.
T.G. came out to the gazebo with his son who was his best man, and waited for his bride to be, as she came down the steps with her children to meet her husband to be. She was dressed in a beautiful white full-length gown,and she was as beautiful as I have ever seen her, and T was the handsome prince smiling as he took her hand and led her into the gazebo to take their vows. They exchanged their wedding vows, placed the wedding rings on each others hands, and finally the minister said the magic words that we had all waited to hear, "I now pronounce you man and wife, and then told T
that he could kiss his bride." (If you will look at the first picture, you will see the happiness that will make their marriage complete). They have been knowing each other many years, and have been dating for over 6 years, so all of us in the industry know that this marriage was meant for each of them to live happily ever after.
They went into the mansion for a few minutes then returned to greet all of their friends and guests. Then the awesome wedding cake was brought out and T and Kelly brought everyone up on the steps and balcony of this beautiful home, where they cut the cake and again pledged their love for each other, with the exchange of cake to each other and the champagne toast that followed. In the many years that I have known T.G. and Kelly, I cannot recall ever seeing them this happy. In T.G., Kelly has a caring and loving husband, who was there for here through her serious health issues, and Kelly is the shoulder and love for T to be able to lean on. Happiness is not something that is bought with money, it is given freely with time and togetherness, and tonight I was envious to see this much happiness and togetherness within these two wonderful human beings. God Has Blessed them and touched their hearts and minds and souls with his loving hand.
Some of those in attendance for the wedding were the members of T.G.'s band, Ric, Jimmy, Tim, Kenny, Smoke, and Greg, The Oak Ridge Boys, Lorrie Morgan as beautiful as ever, and her son, who I think looks like his Mom,
Helen Cornelius, Jeannie Seely, Pete Fisher and his wife, Roxanne Russell Atwood and her husband Tim, who is a member of the Grand Ole Opry Staff Band, The Mayor of Hendersonville Scott Foster and his wife. I am sure that I have missed many of those that were there, and many that I did not know, so please forgive me.
Mr.& Mrs. T.G. Sheppard has a wonderful ring to it, does it not.And now they will spend the rest of their live's together, loving and caring for each other in all of their needs and with the love of The Good Lord to support them through their long life.
Congratulations Kelly and T for allowing us to be part of your magic night.
