They wanted a last dance with nobody watching.
So while the two of them had the floor to themselves, the rest of us were out in the dark handing out streamers, lining people up on both sides, and getting the Jeep turned around and pointed down the driveway.
That's most of what a send-off is. A whole crowd of people who need to be in the right place holding the right thing at the right moment, arranged quietly enough that the couple never sees it happening.
Then they came through at a run, the cans dragged off down the gravel, and that was the wedding.
Congratulations, Jacob and Taylor.
