Latisha & Brittany Hicks Wedding ~ April 28th, 2013

Today, I was given the honor to officiate the legal Wedding of Latisha and Brittany Hicks in Stevenson, WA along the Columbia River! Latisha's mom walked her to the nature-made altar where Brittany and I waited. What a beautiful day for a Wedding! Latisha and Brittany are from the Salem, Oregon area!



Thank you Latisha and Brittany for giving me the opportunity to help make your Wedding Day special! I hope the best to you both in your future 'Life Adventures' together!

Kathleen & Matthew Alderson Wedding ~ April 27th, 2013

Yesterday, I was also given the honor to officiate the Wedding of Kathleen Boone and Matthew Alderson who were Wed surrounded by their family and friends at the Tatyana's Ballroom in Beaverton, Oregon! They had a touching Wedding with about 100 guests from throughout Oregon and Washington which was a lot of fun as they celebrated with food, drinks, fun and ballroom dancing!

Kathleen and Matt chose Tatyana's Ballroom as the venue for both their wedding and reception. This locale holds special meaning for them as it is the place they have been taking ballroom and latin dance lessons for the last several months! They so enjoy dancing (and their wonderful teacher, Tatyana)! They asked everyone to be ready to dance at the reception!...or not (-: as there would be a group dance lesson, taught by Tatyana herself. ~ Saturday, April 27, 2013 | 4:00 pm 

Please note that Tatyana's Ballroom is moving to another location. Kathleen and Matt's Wedding and Reception is the last event being held in this location. I'll post it's new location once I receive that info.

Peggy & Margaret Wedding ~ April 26th, 2013

On Friday, I was given the honor to officiate a very loving Wedding at the home of Peggy and Margaret who live in Camas, WA! With their family and friends present, I shared a script which was hand made by the two of them which included a Candle Ceremony and a Hand-fasting Ceremony. The candle that was used was purchased by Margaret just before she met Pam which she saved for her special day!

Peggy's cousin, Monica, read 1 Corinthians 13 from her bible as part of the ceremony in sharing how Peggy and Margaret view 'Love', and one of her dear friends, Marti, shared an Irish blessing. And of course, Marti pointed out that there are only two types of people out there: those who are Irish and those who wish they were! :-)

After the ceremony was over, we all received colorful pinwheels and had group photos taken. Then we proceeded on to toasting the newly Wed couple in which several shared. Peggy's boss also gave a very heart-warming toast for Peggy and Margaret!

This was one of those celebrations where I am smiling as I leave as it was so much fun! Boy, do I love my job!

(I'll post photos when I receive some. See other Wedding photos I've received at: WeddingWire.)
