This weekend was a wedding for another co-worker at my dayjob. She was just stunning, as was everyone in the wedding. A good lookin’ group! Their kids were just adorable all dressed up as their attendants. It was at a local golf club, and the weather of the day required the wedding to happen inside. We did manage to get a few pictures outside, late in the day when the wind seemed to promise to take us away.
This was a beautiful ceremony. I have known Lori for many years, as I work with her at my day job. She chose a great location for her and Chuck’s ceremony at the Majorie McNeely Conservatory. It was a beautiful day, too. The sun was streaming through the windows so much, where you almost needed sunglasses!
These beautiful words were in their program:
This morning when I awakened and began my daily prayers I said “Good Morning God, Please Bless These two guys I love”. I said this loving prayer for you on this your WEDDING DAY I asked him if he would BLESS YOU And keep you in his care. I thought of all the HAPPINESS this day will hold for you. I asked him for this Blessing just for both of you, Because no one else deserves it more. I felt so warm and good in my heart, knowing this day had come. The day that your LOVE united you as one. I know he heard my prayer and has given you his blessings, As we have given you ours.

Since MN does not recognize same sex couple marriage, they were married in Canada on December 28, 2007. This day was their Blessing and Reaffirmation of their vows before family and friends. They hosted at their beautiful house in the late afternoon, with a Hawaiian theme. It was complete with lais direct from Hawaii and a pig roast. Here are a few shots from their day.
A wedding reception at Christos Greek restaurant in downtown St. Paul’s historic Union Depot This was a beautiful location that was extremely difficult to photograph. The lighting was fairly non-existent so my flash was often seen by the crowd. The decorations and food were wonderfully done, though. Such a handsome couple.
