April & Patrick { Wedding }

Such a sweet, wonderful couple!  Wedding by the North Fork of the Holston River, then the reception at the Bristol Train Station. We were honored to be a part of their very special day. Here are just a very few of my favorites

    well now we know what April looks like all grown up, not sure if her mom was in the many photos'
    and her Dad I almost did not recognize with the new hat, was sure that he would be sporting his side arms with all the snakes in your beautiful country, thanks for the great color photo's and the beautiful ladies.
    Now we know what Raymon will be doing in his spare time when the grandkids arrive.

    April, We have not seen your for several years. You have grown into a lovely women. You look happy.

    It is really hard for a dad to give the bride away. I know because I have accomplished it three times.It looks like Raymon also accomplished the job. Please hug your mom and Dad for Nancy and myself.

    Great pictures.

    Your friends,

    Now you will feel no rain,
    for each of you will be shelter for the other.
    Now you will feel no cold,
    for each of you will be warmth to the other.
    Now there will be no loneliness,
    for each of you will be companion to the other.
    Now you are two persons,
    but there is only one life before you.
    May beauty surround you both in the
    journey ahead and through all the years,
    May happiness be your companion and
    your days together be good and long upon the earth.

    Dear April,

    While you don't know me, I took a course from your dad. Also, I have read his book about you more than once...and am deeply moved with each time.

    You are an utterly exquisite bride, and your groom looks full of kindness and humor. Every picture seems brimming with heart, spirit and love...I got lots of joy going through them.

    My prayers are with you as you begin this life's journey together.

    Warm wishes and caring!

    The Seasons of April..... and the second book begins. You are the essence of the love and nuturing that your Father and Mother has giving you all these years. From that you have become your own authentic self. Beautiful in the heart, spirit and soul as well as your earthly body. With the union of you and Patrick I know you will accomplish many things together with joy and gratitude. And just the right place to join together with family and friends for this joyous occasion. Beautiful photos of everything. Your Dad and Mom look great. My heart is filled with unbriddled joy for you all. Much love to you.
