See you at the altar

Instead of getting married with the ocean behind us, Dan’s Mom, Bev suggested that we have our ceremony on the grass in front of some trees.  We agreed.

Bev told me she had some “ideas” for our ceremonial stage and promised it would not be tacky. I wasn’t worried.  I was happy to just be getting married there and didn’t expect anything more than grass, trees and maybe some urns full of flowers.

As you can see from the pics below, where we are getting married is much more than I ever expected and her “idea” turned out amazing.  I can’t wait (well, I can…) to stand up on this deck, say our vows to each other, all the while biting my lip to hold back any tears that are bound to try and escape.   Only 3 more months to go.

Many thanks to Allan and Roger for all of your hard work and Bev for your vision.
