Day
Two - July 1 - Our Big Day (and Canada Day too!)
Getting
ready was nerve wracking. Sara served us some fantastic buttermilk waffles
and the three of us enjoyed a leisurely breakfast and gabbing that resulted
in only an hour to shower and get dressed before the marriage commissionaire
arrived!
 |
 |
| Oh
you know, these are more corny "getting ready" shots you
have to have... |
We
put Tim to work on this project. |
|
|
| He
did a great job! |
Kate's
ready... |
 |
 |
| Last
shot before the big event... |
Sara
Ratner, the wonderful B&B proprietor. |
 |
 |
| The
lovely table setting. |
A
picture before things get rolling. |
|
|
| Another
shot before the ceremony got started |
Are
we ready? We were barefoot for the ceremony! |
 |
 |
| We're
really nervous. |
Pat
Mitten, the marriage commissionaire (equivalent to a justice of the
peace in the U.S.) beginning the ceremony, which was in the backyard
of the B&B. |
 |
 |
| Listening
to Pat. |
Vows. |
 |
| Sara
made these for us. |
|
|
| More
vows. |
Neither
of us remember much about this - so surreal! |
|
|
| We're
married! Waiting on Tim's pix of the kiss, which Sara missed (she
was taking pix with my camera). |
The
joyful couple with our "best person". Sarah (Kate's sister)
-- we know you were there in spirit! |
 |
 |
| It
was a beautiful, sunny day. |
We
were ecstatic. |
 |
 |
| Unbelievably
happy. |
Down
to business -- all have to sign documents post-ceremony. |
 |
 |
| Pat
Mitten looks on. |
Tim,
as a witness, signs. |
 |
 |
| Everything
was just perfect. |
Sara
signs, as a witness. |
 |
 |
| The
signing is complete. We now have to wait about a month for the final
marriage license, which has to be processed and mailed to us. |
The
happy feet! |
|
|
| The
rings. |
A
closer look. |
 |
 |
| Some
pictures in the front yard. |
|
 |
 |
| |
The
B&B sign. |
 |
 |
| |
We
went back in and Sara had the cake ready (FYI, vanilla cake made with
Splenda, along with fresh raspberries,). |
 |
 |
| Cutting
the cake. |
We
are incompetent at it. |
 |
 |
| Finally,
a slice! |
One
bite for Pam... |
 |
| One
for Kate... |
The whole
ceremony was beautiful. We're glad we have so many wonderful shots from
the day. We later went sightseeing. Continue on to see where we went.
