Jade and Houston Holmes initially planned to have almost 200 guests and a country club ceremony
initially planned to have nearly 200 guestsSocial distancing recommendations prompted the pair to instead get married in a family backyard on Sunday. After the smaller ceremony, Jade and Houston, both 22, went into the front yard to take some photos and were surprised by a parade of the guests who were not able to attend — all at a safe distance, of course.
A long line of 50 cars, some decked out with balloons and other decorations, drove by the house, honking merrily and their friends waving as they drove by.Friends in one car even tossed “J + H” balloons out onto the lawn of the house, and another car towed a trailer on which another guest sat. Guests in yet another car tossed confetti at Jade and Houston.
The newlyweds looked shocked before breaking into laughter as they waved back at their original guests. Americans across the country are practicing social distancing in an effort to curb the spread of COVID-19, and several states have issued stay-at-home orders.
