Tornado In Suffolk, VA

Soooo, for those of you having read my previous blog you know that i have a wedding over the 4th of July weekend, 67 days to be exact, but who’s counting?  So yesterday i was waiting to meet with a group about one of our projects and i got a call from Fiance.  “Beck, i just heard from mom, a tornado touched down in Suffolk today and tore through the town of Driver.”

“NO! Stop playing, Fiance, If your joking with me, this isn’t funny! i will seriously hurt you!”

Trying to sound as sincere and polite as possible Fiance tells me he is not joking.  Our Wedding was set to take place in Suffolk VA and if you know the town of driver, its about the size of old town Manassas.  It was to take place in an old house that they rebuilt in the inside to make into a lovely hardwood floor with nice decorations and it is beautiful over looking the water. 

Everyone was trying to get through and all the phone lines and such were down.  I was in a huge panic! I was freaking out!!  We were looking through pictures on the internet, news everything.  The only thing we found was that a convience store about a mile from the wedding ceremony/reception site was demolished. :’(

We were finally able to get through last night and found out that the place is fine and good to go…………i cried for fear, then relief……i cant really explain all the feelings but im glad that everyone is ok and my venue is still standing.
