Brandi Sharpe and Michael Johnson were united in marriage on September 27, 2014. The bride is the daughter of Charles and Renee Sharpe of Mobile, Alabama. The groom is the son of Terry and Susan Johnson of Hernando, Mississippi. 

On April 7, 2013, the couple went to the Memphis Zoo. They’re members, so they visit often, but Brandi says something felt different about it this time. Before she knew it, Michael was asking her to marry him. 

 

The ceremony was held on September 27, 2014, at 211 Main Hall & Gardens in Como, Mississippi. Dr. Phillip A. Brasher, Jr. officiated. A reception followed, complete with a DJ and delicious selection of entrees, include barbeque and chicken with all the fixin’s. The groom’s cake showed off his passion for The Beatles, and the three-tiered almond and strawberry wedding cake incorporated the wedding’s thematic elements.

 

For something old, the bride wore the ring her paternal grandfather gave her grandmother on their 50th wedding anniversary. She borrowed a hair pin from one of her bridesmaids.  Her maternal grandmother gave her a new set of pearls, and both her wedding band and engagement ring featured blue sapphires. 

 

Following a honeymoon in Destin, Florida, the couple resides in Hernando, Mississippi.
