Bob Goff’s Love Does Chapter 8 Wedding Cake
W hen I got married, we didn’t have any money at all. I was just out of law school and was volunteering as a Young Life leader at one of the local high schools. I think after we sold my rusty Volkswagen we had about $3 to spend for each person coming to the wedding, maybe less. We didn’t get many flowers; instead we got lots of balloons and we found a caterer who felt sorry enough for us to give us some food for cheap. The cake was going to be a big problem, though. Sweet Maria had checked around and a cake was going to cost more than we had for the whole wedding. Then I remembered there was a kid in Young Life whose dad owned a bakery. I asked how big of a cake we could get for about $150 and he said he could make one that would be about four stories tall. That would do.
The wedding went as weddings do. I said “I do,” she said “I do,” and we ran down the aisle. the reception was held at a very swanky clubhouse on a lake in Fairbanks Ranch. In order to live in Fairbanks Ranch you need to of been invented medicine or energy or something. I was a young lawyer and my boss had purchased a home in the area. With the purchase him the right to use the clubhouse on the lake twice a year – for free. That was just inside our price range.
