handfasting the kiss

Whoo Hoo!! We're married!

I have a few pictures that my son took with my camera if you follow this picture back to my flickr account.  It will be a few days before the professional's pictures are available to me.

I survived!!  Minor miracle that is.  It was a very busy day, what with tasks and other things to do before the wedding.  I had my daughter, sister-in-law and sister to help keep me on track.  The ceremony was lovely and the dinner afterward was great.  All the talking, laughing, candlelight, etc.  Just what I wanted, couldn't imagine anything different.

Today I'm back to "real life" and that's okay too.

    That looks so beautiful! :) I'm so happy for you (and yay that it's over on some levels, eh?)! I'm very curious about the cords. What did each one represent? I saw the note about the heritage cord.

    I think if we had actually done anything other than going to the magistrate, I would have chosen to do something very similar. :) You looked gorgeous, u-i, and very happy! :)

    You both looked fantastic and what a beautiful spot to get married!  I was looking for the carved wooden spoon, but didn't see it.  Did that turn out all right?
