Wedding Day to remember. . . . . .



What can I say other than the day was one of the happiest ever. . . . .for me, 
our family, new friends, many of whom had traveled far.
It drizzled some, but of course the Brits didn't mind!
The bride was drop dead gorgeous, her attendants incredibly lovely.
Venue was amazing, food delicious, wedding cake scrumptious, 
liquid refreshments plentiful.
The age group was phenomenal - five months to ninety - and everybody danced!


The biggest surprise of all, making this wedding truly a whirlwind affair, 
Cassie and Richard, determined to do it right, had taken ballroom dancing lessons! 
Their first dance was a real dance, a perfect foxtrot with several dips, no trips, 
and much concentration.
One guest held up a 10 points sign, applause was deafening.
All I can say is, it was a beautiful wedding, everyone was very happy, and 
we all had a wonderful time celebrating the newly married couple.

  5. Congratulations to the young couple. May their life together be filled with happiness.
    For the middle of winter everyone seems to be dressed very lightly.

    1. Louise, some drizzle but not cold - even at the end of the celebration at midnight, when we made an arbor of sparklers in the garden for the newlyweds to run through, it was quite humid. Then we drove home (45 mins.) in thick fog!
      Cooler weather coming here soon though, Jan/Feb/Mar usually - and I'm ready for some snow! New Year's Eve will be down to freezing I hear.
      Have a happy one - Mary

  11. Thank you SO much for capturing these lovely photos of the family and bridesmaids, as well as the ones of Richard and me! We had the time of our lives, and if we could go back and do it all again -- I wouldn't change a SINGLE thing. I am still getting tears in my eyes when I think back on it today, just because of how much complete love and happiness was shared on Sunday. We love you!! xo
