Our riverfront cabin is the perfect location for small family weddings. The covered porch is a great place for guests to gather and enjoy visiting with each other.
Since their wedding took place during the afternoon, Alisha and Ken wanted to include a small reception. I arranged for a two tiered wedding cake, sparkling juice, and several trays of hors d'oeuvres in addition to a bridal bouquet and boutonniere.
We started their ceremony by lighting a memorial candle for Ken's father, whose photo was placed on our altar.
When it was time to light their unity candle, they used the flame from the memorial candle, bringing the past into the future. Again.. outside unity candle. And it stayed lit.
Don't they look happy??
