The best word to describe Marilyn and Adam's day.
Beautiful:
the bride, (the groom was beautifully handsome),
the day,
the ceremony,
the temple,
the family,
the friends,
the smiles,
the hugs,
the laughter,
the tears,
and of course the love;
much love demonstrated for the bride and groom by the many folks who came to share their day with them
as well as their love for each other.
Beautiful.
Warning: Lots of photos ahead in an effort to help you feel as much a part of it as possible, if you weren't able to be there. And, since Marilyn left me a comment (while on her honeymoon, crazy girl!) she may be coming back and I want her to be able to see as many photos as possible. (I know as I go through the photos I will find more that I like and probably will like better than these, but here is a good representation.)
The bouquet...there is quite a story behind getting the flowers in order to make the bouquet - these roses came to me by way of a little miracle - and it's a blessing they did!
Quite a group! This isn't all who were in attendance either, they had such great support.
The fam on the Rich side:
Sisters:
With the parents in attendance:
Their photographer and Adam helping Marilyn with her dress...good husband:
WOW, Aunt Mar!! Great photos! I absolutely love the picture of Marilyn and Adam kissing in front of the temple. (And I hate kissing pictures!!) But, it really is beautiful.
And I couldn't believe how intense Marilyn's shoes were. But they looked great.
And I love the Rich family photo.
And of course the sisters photo.
It really was such a beautiful day. I'm so glad I was able to be there!

Oh My. Breathtaking. Special, gorgeous memories. Love, love, love the red shoes. And the shot of their shoes while walking is timeless. So glad you got to go and capture the special day through your eyes.

I've looked over these pictures several times since you posted them. I wish I could have been there!
What STUNNING captures you have here. Love them. The black and whites are my favorite, especially the one with the temple in the background. It was fun to see Adam's parents. It was great to see everyone.
And can I say that I love your outfit Mar. You are an artist the way you put colors together.
