Wedded Bliss? Can't Resist!

The setting was delightful,

in each and every way.

The stars were perfectly aligned

for Rich and Stacy's day.

With friends and family gathered 'round,

beneath the warming sun,

the vows were lovingly exchanged

and two became as one.

Of course, there must be pictures,

and we took more than a few.

We even got Rich with his boys,

and lots of cousins, too.

(This one's a closer view.)

Don't laugh. I had a parasol,

and then we had some dinner.

These happy faces say it all.

(But Rich was the big winner!)

Congratulations and lots of love
to
Rich and Stacy.
May you have many happy years together.

Outdoor weddings are so beautiful..especially if you live where that wedding was! We almost had an outdoor reception for our son..until a tornado decided to whip through..but it was pretty while it lasted! Congrats to the bride and groom. The pics were great. What a nice looking family you have! Your Mom looked super too!

You are such a doll, Sue...and what a lovely setting! Neil and I were married on the beach. There's just something about doing it right in the middle of God's creation.

Such a beautiful post, my friend!

Great pictures.
I love the one of Rich with his sons. That one would actually enlarge when I clicked it so I could see it well with my older eyes :)

Susan Anderson said...

I wonder why some of my photos will enlarge when clicked and others won't. Does anybody know?

I love weddings. We just watched the video from our niece's wedding and it made me all happy.

The parasol photo is awesome, by the way.
