The Wedding of Donna F. and Bill's Spirit

The wedding was absolutely spectacular. It was the perfect day, sunny and in the mid-seventies. The groom (Bill's Spirit) and his best man were resplendent in their cargo shorts and straw hats.  My bridesmaid and I both were barefoot, as well as my grandson, ring-bearer. The ceremony was tear-inducing, as well as the dancing afterward. Here are a few of the hundreds of pictures of our day.

I'm sure Bill will post something much more creative, but i know y'all want to see some proof that we went through with it.

And for the record, Gandalf turned out to be a racist pig, so Justice of the Peace, Greg performed the ceremony.

I told my daughter to remove all polish from her nails before we arrived so we could get the pedicure treatment...then we got busy and forgot, and we both painted our nails the same shades they were before we removed the old..I othught the hot pink matched her dress just perfectly..
What a wonderful photo essay. Congratulations!!

I always wanted a barefoot wedding. So glad to see that you did it. Hope the entirety of your marriage is that free and comfortable.
Donna Spirit Aug 27, 2012, 4:08pm UTC
Thanks Sandy...We thought it fit with our vision of what we wanted.
Ian, the social being Aug 26, 2012, 9:40pm UTC
That is wondeful. I like the barefoot aspect. We might do that for our recommitment ceremony. Bummer about Gandalf, but glad you enjoyed the day! Hope all goes well!
Donna Spirit Aug 27, 2012, 4:07pm UTC
Yeah, we were both highly disappointed that he turned out to be a jerk.
Jan S. Aug 26, 2012, 10:01pm UTC
