Outdoor Wedding

Her friends all warned her against him. They said she was crazy. He was too different. People would judge her. Eventually she'd grow bored. What would her parents think? Where would they ever find a priest to perform the ceremony?

Janet ignored them all. They didn't understand. This was what she'd always dreamed of. They'd realize they'd been wrong. He was patient and sturdy. Plus it would come with an outdoor wedding.

Her friends refused to come. They said it wasn't right to marry a tree stump, even if it did have a nice hat and scarf wrapped around it.
