When Going to the Chapel Means a Wedding at Floyd’s Own Dogtown Roadhouse

It’s helpful when you co-own a great venue and your outdoor wedding needs an indoor home because it’s raining outside.

The community came together to celebrate the marriage of Dogtown co-owner Elizabeth and Jake under the chuppah.

It was a family affair.

Part tradition

and part Floyd style

with a potluck spread to rival any catered reception.

There were heartfelt wedding vows, toasts and cake.

The reception party was a new take on the Dogtown Open Mic. It was Sunday after all!

Of course there was plenty of dancing

And merrymaking.

Whoo-ee, ride me high / Today’s the day that my bride’s gonna come / Whoo-ee, are we gonna fly / Down into the easy chair…

Mazel tov and sweet blessings to Elizabeth and Jake! It was an honor to celebrate with you. – Watch Jake propose to Elizabeth via an original song at the Dogtown Open Mic HERE.

    What a somewhat peak into Floyd’s ongoing history here. Thank you and the work you do for the community.

    Thank you, Christian. Click “Where I’m From” on the sidebar categories for more Floyd peaks. Or maybe Floyd Press Stories, reprints of stories I covered for the Floyd Press for 15 years.
