A Phillies Theme Wedding in Delaware County

Jamie & Morgan
July 27, 2007
Springfield Country Club

Jamie & Morgan's wedding day was certainly one for me, a devoted Phillies fan, to be jealous of. In addition to being presented with a Phillies baseball hat, autographed by the entire 2007 Philadelphia Phillies, the introductions of the bridal party were done by none other than the announcer of the Phillies, Hall of Fame broadcaster Harry Kalas.

To give you a chance to hear the beginning and ending of their bridal party introductions, I've posted them here: Beginning - Ending

To protect their privacy, I've edited out the names of those who were introduced, but I WILL tell you that "Harry The K" referred to the parents as "The Managers", the bridesmaids and groomsmen as "The Starting Lineup", the Best Man and Matron of Honor were "The Pinch Hitters", and the Ring Bearer and Flower Girl were called "The Bat Boy" and "The Ball Girl".

When dinner came to a close, the friends and family were more than ready to fill the dance floor. I particularly enjoyed watching two guests dancing to "ABC" by the Jackson 5.

I also really enjoyed listening to one of Jamie and Morgan's groomsmen, a groomsman who had apparently been cheated out of winning their high school's Junior Class elections, singing "Live Like You Were Dying" by Tim McGraw.

Congratulations, Jamie and Morgan!

UPDATE: If you would like to ask Harry Kalas to record your wedding day announcements for your grand entrance, here is how.

Because Mr. Kalas receives about a dozen requests each week for this, the best way for you to reach Harry The K is to send a letter to:

Citizens Bank Park
ATTN: Harry Kalas
One Citizens Bank Way

Good luck!
