During the bride's procession to the altar, the 'Marche Heroique' on Jim-Tom's record player by Tammy Wynette was played. 

Then the hymn 'Ye Holy Kudzu Bright' was sung. 

After the ceremony 'Kudzu Divine, All Leaves Are Growing, As Shall Our Love' was sung, followed by the lesson, which was Lesson, the First Letter of John, chapter 4, verses 7-11. 

Following the prayers the Latin anthem 'Where There Is A Field, There Is Kudzu' was sung by the choir. 

For the final hymn, the couple chose 'Let All The World In Every Corner Sing, My Kudzu Mine.' After this hymn the register was signed. 

The choir then sang 'The Spirit Of Kudzu Is Upon Me', the Prologue to the Oratorio The Apostles, opus 39, by Billy Bumgardner, followed by 'The Amen Chorus' from Messiah by George Frederick Handel, slightly modified by replacing 'Kudzu' when the crowd sang  'Amen.' 

The people in the Kudzu field all stood to sing the National Anthem, before the bride and groom walked to the West End. 

For this, they were accompanied by the Toccata [Kudzu] from the Fifth Symphony by Charles Marie Widowman. There was not a dry eye in the town of Blythewood that afternoon.

The food for the evening was being prepared jointly by Sams Kitchens and Blythewood-based caterers Collards Food Design. A selection of hot and cold canapes was followed by a self-service Bar-B-Que Buffet dinner, for which guests were seated on the loading dock. 

The menu was prepared by Thelma Mabel Cooper and included coulibiac (smoked brim baked with kudzu stems and turnips in pastry), beef tongue stroganoff, and a selection of vegetables and salads, with fresh kudzuberries for dessert. 

The customary cutting of the wedding cake, and the toasts, preceded dinner. The toasts were made by the bride's father, the groom and the supporters.

The wedding cake was made by Marybelle Linda Fripp of Blythewood Country Kitchen, conveniently located in downtown Blythewood. 

Music during the evening was provided by a jug band quartet from the County Prison and an acapella ensemble from the Blythewood Players, both organisations of which Tony is patron, and the official band of the Kudzu Festival. 

The Bottoms Creek Gold Mine was originally known as The Creek Claim. In the early twentieth century gold from the mine was used to make the regalia for the inauguration of Governor Bottoms, which led to the change of name. The 10ct gold used for the wedding rings was discovered during recent exploration activities by Tommy Souther and his father, and refined by Collards Foods.
