Brian + Jessica

August 21, 2009

This was a very special wedding for me!  Jessica used to baby sit my children for me.  So, when she called for her wedding, I was thrilled!  But, then there was a big scare a few weeks ago.  Brian is a landscaper, and he was hit by a car while on a tractor.  God was with him that day, because the injuries should have been a LOT worse than they were.  In the end, Brian had a broken tail bone.  Even though it was a hard day for Brian to get around, we are grateful that he was here to marry Jessica!

The wedding was at Calvary CRC in Wyoming, and the reception was at Centennial Country Club in Cascade.  I love taking pictures of the rings!

Brian is a volunteer fire fighter for the wyoming fire department.  So, he was able to arrange a fire truck to show up for a few minutes for some pictures!

Brian’s goomsmen were there for him every minute of the day.  They were helping him get ready, helping him get in and out of the wheel chair, and helping him whatever he needed.  I thought this shot summed it all up… all his guys circling him in support.

And of course I have to show the girls!

During the ceremony, they did a circle of prayer.  I love it when this is done!

Although it wasn’t the choreographed dance that Jessica was hoping for, Brian was able to stand by her for the first dance!

Congratulations Brian and Jessica!

Michael + Nisreen!

August 7, 2009

Michael and Nisreen had a beautiful wedding last Saturday!  We had a few challenges with the wind and the rain and a big craft show, but that didn’t dampen their day!  (Craft show???  What does that have to do with a wedding?  Well, we were supposed to go to Centenial Park in Holland before the ceremony, but there was a HUGE Craft show… on to plan B….)
