3:45 PM, Oakland City Hall Wedding Chapel, June 29, 2007.
I had the honor and privilege to attend the Timothy Reed and Alexander Hampton marriage ceremony, along with at least thirty other celebrants. Not only that, I had the thrill of being their official witness of record and got to sign the legal documents as such. That was humbling.
The bride, author Timothy Reed (the superb "Showing Out") was absolutely stunning and her new spouse, actor Alexander Hampton, was very dashing and debonair. It was so evident that these two young lovebirds were fated to tie the knot that their love literally filled the air. By the time Timothy tossed her bouquet and garter belt, there was nary a dry eye in the house.
Kudos to the presiding justice of the peace for a beautiful and sensitive job on this overwhelmingly joyous occasion.
And best congratulations to the happy couple, Timothy Reed-Hampton and Alexander Hampton! You are truly inspirational and the sky is the limit for you two!!
