98-year-old woman set to be one of the ‘oldest bridesmaids’ in the country

UNION GROVE, NC (WBTV) – When 23-year-old Bethany Shaw sat Naomi Wooten down to pop the question, things didn’t quite go as planned.

“Naomi will you be my Matron of Honor?” Wooten recalled of the moment that was supposed to be touching, “I absolutely said no.”

The 98-year-old is the oldest member of the congregation at the church where Shaw’s father is the preacher. It was a no-brainer to ask the wildly-popular and spunky Wooten to be a member of her wedding party.

“I finally said yes, it would be an honor,” Wooten relented to the young girl’s request.

This weekend, Shaw will marry her sweetheart Austin Harner. The two will become one while standing next to a woman who knows a thing or two about love.  MORE
