Pastor Mike finished the ceremony by saying, "These two whom God has brought together, let no man or woman, put asunder. Robert, you may kiss your bride." With that, Robert hugged her, put his palm on her cheek, and kissed her.  Everyone cheered and clapped for them, Ruth's mom was still crying but clapping with everyone else.  Robert and Ruth turned toward their friends and family, told them the reception would be at the Irwin house, as Robert raised their joined hands into the air as if to say, 'victory is ours'.

     Robert and Ruth took Chandler's truck and the others rode in the car or got an uber.  Robert and Ruth were the first ones back to the house, and they went inside.  Ruth ran upstairs to change from her wedding dress into a shorter wedding/Party dress (model in this pic isn't Ruth) that she had bought the other day right after the spa treatments.

She was changing and put on a pair of special white converse high-tops, which she had embroidered herself a year ago, and her mom had brought them with her when they were decorating the day before.  Robert had changed into a casual shirt and white shorts.  She was getting ready to look at herself in the mirror when she was hugged from behind by Robert, he complimented, "You look beautiful, you know that?" She nodded, then said, "Come on, we gotta get the food out and put it outside and I'm gonna get the cake set up too."
