Tom and Mary Jane - Fall wedding at RiverMist

Tom and Mary Jane wanted to get married outside but was a little concerned about a November wedding. As it turned out the weather was absolutely perfect for their fall wedding.
I watched from the deck as the guests arrived. Several people had traveled from Florida for this special day.
Walking to the covered bridge.
I think everyone had a camera.
"Mary Jane and Tom, you have known each other from the first glance of acquaintance to this point of commitment. At some point, you decided to marry. From that moment of yes to this moment of yes, indeed, you have been making promises and agreements in an informal way....."
From "Union by Robert Fulghum
 What a special ring bearer. Notice the bouquet.
 How nice to include canine family.
Beautiful engagement ring.
And the happy family.
Lovely Bride.
And a guest insisted on this photo.
So nice to be surrounded by people who love you.
What a great start for a marriage.

Benediction of the Apaches 
Now you will feel no rain,
For each of you will be shelter to the other.
Now you will feel no cold,
For each of you will be warmth to the other.
Now there is no more loneliness for you.
For each of you will be companion to the other.
Now you are two bodies,
But there is only one Life before you.
Go now to your dwelling place,
To enter into the days of your togetherness.
And may your days be good and long upon the earth.
