Please keep in mind we did not hire a professional photographer, so these are candid shots by my brother-in-law. Nevertheless, I hope you enjoy them. :)
My sister made this sign for us. I absolutely adore it!
My son walked me from the dressing room up to the back of the shelter. It was too long of a walk for my father, who has Parkinson's Disease. It was just barely sprinkling while my son and I walked up, but had quit by the time I made it to the alter.
My dad, walking me up the aisle 💗
THIS is why we didn't marry in Sedona.
For Dad!
I am holding back the tears!

This is a bit blurry, if you zoom in, but I like it anyway.
I love my shoes, flats! No way was I walking in grass in heels.
Also, um... the funniest thing happened during the unity ceremony... Notice we do NOT have the hurricane glass over the candle. At first we did, but every time we went to try to light the pillar with our tapers, the wax from the tapers dripped down and put all the flames out! LMAO Everyone laughed, including us. Then the inventive Aquarius (me), took the hurricane glass off and wallah! All lit.
And thank you so much Dana for the unity ceremony words! They were absolutely perfect!

I can't remember if this is before or after exchanging rings, probably after. All I kept thinking is why did we make this so long! lol It really wasn't long, about 20 minutes. But I was so nervous up in front of everyone.
The Kiss!
Now, married!
