Another fabulous wedding

Nathan and Meredyth have tied the knot. It was a really beautiful wedding for a beautiful couple. The whole day was energized by these lovely young adults who have grown up together since childhood. The girls got ready here at Babalinda's and the ceremony was at Serenity Park. Bob and I officiated together, with me giving Meredyth her vows to repeat for Nathan.  The photo shoot was done in our garden and as you can see in one of the shots, the wedding party brought props. The rustic parts of the garden were a perfect backdrop for making it feel like the wild west. I was busy serving tea and coffee so I missed out on a lot of the photography, so I am really anxious to see the finished product. The reception was at a nearby venue and as the bridal party arrived they broke out into a choreographed dance to "I've got my mind set on you", which absolutely set the mood for the rest of the evening. Such talented kids. (They will always be our kids). Another unique aspect of the evening was when even the bride donned her red leather Kosak boots and joined in on the big circle dance where the dancers would move to the center of the dance floor and show us their Ukranian dance moves. They have all been dancing since the time they could walk. It was a real family wedding. The depth of relationship among the group is something that money could never buy. It was precious.

  1. Were these people friends, family, or someone who rented the garden for the wedding?
