One Wedding Ceremony. Two Couples. Four ‘I Dos.’
The New York Times
The sisters Mary Wilt and Melinda Stone celebrated their happily-ever-afters together in Texas.
James Wilt, razor-sharp in a jet-black suit, stood between his two daughters: Melinda Stone on his left, beaming in a white, floor-length gown, and Mary Wilt to his right, in a sparkly knee-length dress. Ms. Stone, 56, and Ms. Wilt, 51, each held their 79-year-old father’s hands, and all three began moving forward as Mendelssohn’s “Wedding March” began playing. The two sisters were celebrating both their weddings in one single ceremony on May 29 at Frisco Commons Park in Frisco, Texas, about 30 miles north of Dallas. Father and daughters were soon on a stage in full view of their combined 80 guests, where they met their soon-to-be husbands: Calvin Hodges, 59, whom Ms. Stone had met 14 months earlier at a supermarket in Plano, Texas; and Rob Andrews, 51, Ms. Wilt’s high school sweetheart.More Related News
