A Beautiful Bride

Published by at 11 52 pm under Uncategorized

We just returned from a 6 day break to attend our oldest son’s wedding and I have just a couple photos to share today as I try to once again get caught up on shipping orders and restocking shelves.

Marissa was truly a radiant bride and I am so proud to call her my daughter-in-law!  I started the day with high hopes of getting a lot of photos so I could have those memories instantly rather than wait for the professional photos; however, those plans quickly changed as I decided to forget my camera, enjoy the moment and let the professionals get the photos.  I did get a few shots of Marissa in the dressing room before the wedding began and those are the photos I’ll share today:

And here’s the happy couple leaving the church!

Friends are emailing me photos they’ve taken and that they are finding on facebook.  As I get another batch ready to share, I’ll be posting more wedding photos throughout the week  — please indulge me with these proud mother moments!!!

Thank you for stopping in and have a WONDERFUL week!

    I really appreciate you sharing the photos with us and I am glad you put your camera down and just enjoyed the moments. Even film or SD cards cannot truly create those feelings again.
