Keith & Josie

Brent sang "Marry Me" by Train as I walked up

...and as the bride walks up she gathers a rose from the girls...
always by my side...thank you...

 

...and the final rose from Brent's mom...

Our dear friend, Josie Ahearn officiating...

“A garden has its seasons; it is born in spring, it flourishes in summer; brings forth its bounty in the harvest of the fall and finally lays dormant in winter. Life and love also know those seasons; they blossom in the spring, flourish in the summer of youth and bring forth the bounty of fall. Yet when our mortal bodies begin the journey to winter, let our love not know of dormancy. Let our love be eternal and let it be celebrated forevermore”.

"I know of no legal impedement....", she says....

Brent & I sang "I Swear" during the ceremony

 "I see the questions in your eyes

I know what's weighin' on your mind

But you can be sure I know my part"

"You'll only cry those happy tears and

though I'll make mistakes, I'll never break your heart"

"I swear by the moon and the stars in the sky, I'll be there

I swear like a shadow that's by your side, I'll be there

For better or worse till death do us part

I'll love you with every beat of my heart, I swear"

 "I'll give you everything I can

I'll build your dreams with these two hands

We'll hang some memories on the wall"

  

"And when there's silver in your hair

you won't have to ask if I still care"

Susan Lakeman sang "Gift of Love"....it was totally awesome....
she had to take off her glasses to keep from crying!!

"We accept these rings as a token of my love and faithfulness. We call upon our friends and family to witness, that we take each other as Husband and Wife".

“I now pronounce you husband and wife; you may now kiss the bride"

....and then...Pam & her son John, sang "All I Ask of You" from the Phantom of the Opera...WOW...

as we signed the register...



take a close look at the table and notice the 2 ducks...

they are a gift from Korea from May's parents when they visited earlier this spring....thank you!!



                                                                              "Regardless of the season, there is always something of beauty to be found in a garden. It has taken many years to build this garden; to prepare it for today, and there will always be more work to be done. So too, with the love of Mona and Brent; this day has been many years in the making and there are many years of joy and splendor to come. We thank-you for coming to this garden to share this day, and it is with great pleasure I introduce to you Brent and Mona; Husband and Wife".

 

Susan sang "I Do" by Colbie Caillet as we danced our way to the bar!!
