Strickland and Sikes Wedding at Cochino Lodge April 30, 2011

The Strickland and Sikes Wedding
was Pink and Black elegance.
This wedding had a lot of new ideas melded with the traditional.
The Arch was constructed on site and had a massive arrangement of roses and greenery.
Just Beautiful.
A single black lantern with deep rose colored -roses, black feathers with  silver ornamental twigs and  crystals
adorned each table. So elegant.
The buffet was set up on the mid-deck and catered by Trinity Cafe.  Enough food for weeks to come. Elegantly displayed and managed by the owners of Trinity Cafe, a delicious treat.
A lot of family attended and many many friends.
Elliott Counts gave a  vocal tribute to the new couple just before the ceremony began.
Rev.  Ronnie Frankens was the officiant with a great inspirational message for the new couple.
The new couple had tears  of joy and happiness as the vows were said.
A very beautiful bride and handsome groom.

The photomontage is of the photographs of Sean Dupre. A great professional who visits Cochino Lodge frequently.  I did a photomontage as I did not know how to capture them one at a time. Please see his site as listed below for more of his work.
