Dreams Come True - Shannon and Shawn are Married!

Yesterday was a normal day for most people, going about their daily routine. Not so, for Shannon and Shawn. It was the day they had been dreaming of. It was their wedding day. Life will never be the same!

When they arrived, Shannon immediately gave me a big hug. I knew it was going to be a very special wedding, full of love and maybe a few tears….

I wanted to include a photo of the back of Shannon's dress. Since we are not a wedding venue with a 'fixed' schedule, there's always time to lend a hand. Shannon had asked me earlier if I would help her get dressed since the back of her wedding gown required lacing. This was fun and gave us a little time to chat while Guy kept Shawn occupied. My husband is quite a storyteller and never at a loss for words.

The two couldn’t stop kissing before the ceremony began.

It was obvious they were so much in love and so happy to finally have their day.

And look at our modern groom. Wedding vows on his smart phone. Don’t think for one moment that this was done in haste. Shawn had written a beautiful tribute to Shannon and made promises to last a lifetime.

Shawn was holding on tight. He found the love of his life and was not about to let her go.

A Blessing for their marriage.

Yes, Shawn you can finally kiss your bride!

And now, the happy couple is on their honeymoon at Lake Lure. Shawn was hoping to take advantage of our beautiful spring weather and play a little golf. Shannon, not yet a golfer, will be happy to ride along with her hubby.

Nothing but happiness ahead for these two!
