a List

• E. & M. – If you want to do something, DO it! And don’t apologize.

• J. & J. – Life is just a little bit better with champagne.

• T. & R. – It’s okay to giggle during meditation.

• A. & J. – Real men do cry. And you just might see the world through rosé colored glasses.

• E. & J. – What you do and how you choose to do it, is an accurate reflection of your life values.

• JJ & J – A civil marriage is worth truly celebrating.

• K. & J. – If you love ice cream sandwiches more than cake, serve ice cream sandwiches.

• G. & D.  – Unexpected pairings are often the best.

• K. & J.  – Sometimes it is true, love can conquer all. And a healthy does of classical references does a mind good.

• C. & S. – If once is good, twice is better.

• V. & J. – Boil it down to the essentials; partner, ceremony, family, food, wine, sweets, love.
  

• M. & J. – Graciously roll with the punches.

The entire weekend radiated an absolute warmth; the bride and groom have known each other since a church group ski trip a decade ago, and their families have been unofficially united for years.  The wedding had the feeling of one large jubilant family, rather than two distinct groups coming together for the first time.

The evening ceremony was held at the childhood church of the bride and groom, First Methodist in Arlington.  The sanctuary itself was decorated for the holiday with poinsettias, and couple added arrangements of white flowers at the ends of the pews.  They invited their friends and family to participate in the service with readings and song.

Dallas’ Belo Mansion held the reception – The Pavillion Ballroom was a proper mix of modern and traditional. Food and dancing and cake and champagne.  Beautiful way to end a year of weddings.

Congratulations to S. and K!

Have an amazing trip to Belize!

Days that begin with dancing dogs are definitely good ones.

The mist over the Dallas, the courtyard at the Belo, the holiday wreath, a little dance move: it all came together.

Same place, different angle, more video light.

Is this what they mean by ‘hairography?’
