Shana & Anthony: May 26, 2007
What's the saying...It's good luck when it rains on your wedding day? Well, rain it did, but rain could not douse the love I felt that was between this amazing couple. I met Shana a couple of months ago, in my home, and knew instantly this was going to be a wedding I would thoroughly enjoy. The rain delayed us slightly, then quit for the remainder of our time there, leaving us with its glistening beauty.
The ceremony began and I watched as Anthony could barely take his eyes off of Shana...she was the bride of his dreams and he was the man of hers. As they said their vows to one another, one thing stood out to me when Shana spoke and told Anthony, "I feel safe with you". I love this! Marriage should be just that...our safe place.
A special thanks to the matron of honor...Stephanie, thank you for your help with the formal shots...I felt your help made this time flow smoothly and quickly. From my experience, formal shots can be a somewhat tense time, however, that wasn't the case here. With the help of Stephanie and the relaxed attitude of everyone, these shots turned out great!
It was a perfect evening and such a fun loving group...you could feel the closeness and love between everyone. Rick served the honor of best man, and Rick, I have to say that, hands down, your best man's speech was the best I've ever heard. You shared from your heart and I know you are a blessing to Anthony and Shana as their friend.
So, Shana and Anthony, in the words of Rick (and He-Man) I say "Good Journey". Thank you so much for giving me the honor of being a part of your day!
