Anderson Cade.

Kristel Blair Anderson and James Clinton Cade were married in a candlelight ceremony on July 2, 2005, at six o'clock in the evening at Shuqualak Baptist Church. Bro. Jon Kittrell officiated.

The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Mark Anderson of Shuqualak. She is the granddaughter of Mr. and Mrs. Marcus Anderson of Shuqualak, Mr. Steve Sudduth of Columbus, and the late Mrs. Virginia Sudduth of Brooksville. She is also the great- granddaughter of Miss Elizabeth Combs of Shuqualak.

The groom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Tommy Cade of Madison. He is the grandson of Mrs. Theresa Farrar and the late Mr. Polk Farrar of Macon and the late Mr. and Mrs. Sam Cade of Brooksville.

The chiming of the hour announced the bride's processional. Given in marriage by her father, the bride wore a white satin designer gown. It had a strapless bodice with hand-embroidered lace covered with metallic threads and hand-beaded crystals. The A-line skirt featured the same lace cascading down the front. The back was split in an apron design with the train overlaid in organza. The overlay was also hand-embroidered with metallic threads and crystal beading. The train swept to a chapel length. She carried a hand-tied bouquet of white Virginia roses wrapped in satin ribbon laced with pearls and French knots.

Ashley Anderson, sister of the bride, served as maid of honor, and Emily Cade served as matron of honor. Bridesmaids were Kimberly Dugan, Candace Turner, Lacey Lee, Stacey Lindley, Hayley Wooten, and Paige Posey. Taylor Agnew served as the bell ringer, and Farrar Misso served as the flower girl.

The bridesmaids each wore mermaid fitting, floor-length gowns of claret satin featuring strapless fitted bodices enhanced by rhinestones at the neckline. They carried hand-tied clutch bouquets of yellow enchantment lilies, Konfetti yellow roses, Forever Young red roses, purple stock, purple larkspur, and caspia, tied with sheer illusion ribbon.

Tommy Cade, father of the groom, served as best man. Groomsmen were Thomas Cade, Brent Turner, Steven Turner, Jody Winn, Chad Johnston, Robbie Agnew, and Wally Cade.

Following the ceremony, the bride's parents hosted a reception at the Pineview Country Club in Macon. The bride's cake was topped with red roses, gathered in clusters, and cascading around a four-tiered wedding cake. Each layer was a different flavor, so guests got the choice of the traditional white cake, strawberry cake, or carrot cake. The groom's cake was a double-layered chocolate cake with cascading fruit including little tux strawberries. Music was provided by Swingshift.

On the eve of the wedding, a bridesmaids' brunch was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Marcus Anderson. The groom's parents entertained with a rehearsal dinner held at First United Methodist Church in Macon with a theme of "the Grove."

After a honeymoon to St. Thomas, U.S.V.I., the couple is at home in Madison.
