Adam & Natalie's Wedding

What a fabulous wedding! It is definitely the best wedding I have ever been to. And apparently I wasn't the only one to shed a few tears when Natalie came down the aisle! I just wish I could remember all the wonderful things that were said and all the delightful feelings and emotions. The ceremony was truly inspirational with so much thought and caring put into it by our Reverend Maggie. All in the wedding party looked so sharp - and young! The music was beautiful - with a very talented soloist and two equally talented pianists. Wow!

The cars were such a treat on loan from a very special person. And we are anxiously awaiting the photos from the official photographer. In the meantime, these will have to do.

We went directly to the house after Church, where most of the guests got to relax and enjoy the scenery and some very delicious appetizers while the wedding party and the families had photos done. And then came the champagne, which continued for the rest of the evening along with the lovely soloist and her accompanist.

Afterwards we were all seated in the Marquis for a very special dinner.

I would also like to say a huge thanks to Burt for the use of his lovely home and the exquisite view, which was such a wonderful background for the decorations and all the beautiful flower arrangements that were done by Natalie's Mom Elizabeth. Hopefully you can see some of them in the photos.

The speeches were all so wonderful and from the heart. Dale's was excellent, but hats off to Adam for his. Between them and Natalie's Mom and Dad, tears were again flowing freely. It was delightful. Then of course the cutting of the cake and just in case you had a sweet-tooth, you could belly-up to the chocolate fondue. Yum!

Next on the agenda was Adam and Natalie's first dance then Natalie with her Dad and then we all got our turn and got in a couple of good hours of dancing and partying. After all the guests had left, a few of us including some of the wedding party, sat around and polished off a few more glasses of champagne for the road. All-in-all, it was a great wedding.

Sunday was lovely again with most of the wedding guests joining Adam and Natalie for brunch at the Kingfisher. Another gourmet feast. All the dieting to get into the dress - out the window! It was a great venue for many of the guests to say farewell to Adam and Natalie as they headed home - both near and far. I also found that it was a nice way to slow down after the busyness of the day before.

So now we are catching up on some much needed rest and Adam and Natalie are getting ready to head off on their honeymoon. Thanks for all your greetings and good wishes.

Take care and ttys.

Love,

Laurel
