The Basic Idea...
When Dave proposed, it was his idea to get married in Baton Rouge, to which Janet, hereafter referred to as Jonesey, wholeheartedly agreed. We know it is a big ask for many of you to make your way to Louisiana, much less in the Christmas holiday season. But some of you will be in the states anyway, so it seemed like an opportunity - and also when the weather in Louisiana won't be boiling. If you can make it, we promise to show you a good time. If you can't, we do understand and don't worry, we'll include you in a little UK celebration we have in mind for next spring.

The Big Day
We'll get married in Jonesey's family church, University Presbyterian, on the campus of Louisiana State University, where Jonesey's father taught for many years and where she also went to school from age 8. The minister conducting the ceremony, Patti Snyder, is also a close family friend,. Dave will wear a suit. and Jonesey will in fact wear a wedding dress (probably) and in an amazing feat of daring do, will attempt to wear heels for the duration of the ceremony!
