a wedding in december


remember a few weeks ago when i had the pleasure to design the flowers and take some wedding pictures? well the bride and groom graciously said yes to me sharing some with you. this wedding was special for a lot of reasons. linda and bernie were planning a wedding in 2012 on myrtle beach  over the 4th of july. then linda's sweet mama found out she has a stage 4 cancerous brain tumor. linda wanted her mom to be there on this special day, walk her down the aisle, share in their joy. to make that happen they changed their plans and decided to get married here in MN, in dec. at the assisted living home where linda's mom now lives.  there's not a lot of weddings here friends~the staff and other residents could not have been more excited to hover around and watch the magic unfold! : )

finally! a glimpse of the cute groom~ it
was obvious they are caaa-razy about each other. (sigh)

it made the bride cry when she watched her~ soon to be~ hubbie sign the marriage license right there
on the old pool table. : ) now that's a memory.

 pretty sure there wasn't a dry eye when marie (one day out of the hospital) bravely walked her daughter down the aisle.

                                      husband and wife- their faces radiate joy eh?
 it's not their 1st rodeo guys, and they have 6 children between them

    there were tears, there was laughter, there was cake and sweet, sweet dancing. it was a sentimental, beautiful wedding. thank you for letting me be a part of your day linda and bernie. be happy!   xo beth
