and daughter's weddings....

BRIDE UPDATE

We transported ourselves and all of the reception flowers to Las Vegas for this elegant wedding...

TAKES THE CAKE

Steele and Ciera

There's something about that moment at the wedding cake....

SUNSHINE AND FUN

I must catch up on posting!

This one was a while ago, but so fun and casual - like a big happy party!

Beth and Scott were actually married aboard a cruise ship in the Panama Canal

then came home to celebrate in California sunshine...

with friends and family

MY TALENTED BRIDE

AN UPDATE....

I confess I like to keep tabs on my brides - I get very attached and love an update now and then as they grow through life and have adorable children... some marriages have fallen to statistics but most are still happy stories.
