1. Centre College. I moved around a lot as a youngster and although Owensboro is certainly my home more than most places, I feel much more of a connection to the people of Owensboro than I do the city itself. Danville is where Leslie and I spent our college years (it's kinda strange to speak of them in the past tense like some long lost era of history) and during that time we came to truly love Danville. It's small, the people are kind, and the college holds an irreplacable place in our hearts. Along with the college come other things that are really important to us on our wedding day. For instance, one of our college professors, Dr. Rick Axtell, will be marrying us.
2. The Presbyterian Church of Danville. Throughout our time at Centre we attended a couple different churches, but none that we connected with like the Presbyterian church right off of campus. In addition to attending Sunday morning services senior year, we were also regulars at the Get Centred service that they hosted on Sunday nights (where Leslie played the cello) and the church is also home to Centre's annual Christmas service, Lessons and Carols. In addition to all of these things, the church is beautiful. Here are a couple of photos, but they don't really do it justice.
3. It's relatively convenient. Although Leslie and I both grew up in Owensboro, my family has since moved to West Virginia, making Danville a happy medium for both families.
Well, hope that gives you a little insight into our wedding planning process.
Can't wait to see you in Danville.
