The weather was WONDERFUL. This must have been the first glimpse of fall.

This group played current music as well as the music of the grandparents time and then beyond that. Versatile and so accommodation making for a full dance floor , this group 'talked' to the guests. Photographs were by The Silhouette Studio, Lufkin, Texas. Sarah Williams worked from mid day till 'quittin' time'. Sara captured all the action. www.thesilhouettestudio.com . The cakes were delicious and beautifully made by Grande Dough Baking Company of Lufkin. The ceremony was held on the deck with benches and floral arrangements of Sunflowers, log slices, huge boots, and burlap. The ceremony was designed by the bride and groom with each stating their vows of their own making to each other. This was a very touching ceremony and so meaningful. There were tears of happiness shed by both bride and groom and the guests. The ring ceremony began with the groomsmen not being able to find the ring, but just at the right moment, one groomsman found one in a box of cracker jack's that exactly fit the bride. The minister stated that he had better 'examine the ring' to make sure that it was real before he began this part of the ceremony. The final wedding prayer asked for ' guidance for the new couple as well as them being able to meet any unforeseen trials with strength. The prayer reminded God that the Bride had been taught to fish so the new family should be OK with nourishment at least and God could carrier them the rest of the way.

This was more than a wedding. It was the gathering together a spirit of going forward in making a wonderful life for this new family unit of three....and all the rest of the children to follow.

The Bride was truly beautiful outwardly as well as in spirit and soul. Her vows to her Groom were touching and truthful. The Groom, very handsome, and protective of his new bride and their son. His kindness and sincerity could also be seen in his presentation of his vows to Brittney.

They will live happily ever after.
