Lake Hefner Wedding for Mike and Heather!

What a lovely venue Lake Hefner turned out to be for this couple.  After days and days of storms, the weather held out for this sunset ceremony.

Close friends and family made up the guest list.

The attendants.

Even Heather’s youngest did a great job!  (Pretty good for such a little one).

Heather made sure she slipped in a couple of extra cute lines into their vows.  Mike was properly amused.

Family pics with the newly wed couple.

Heather’s proud brothers, Travis and Brandt.

On to the ceremony!

Father/Daughter dance.

Of course the first dance always ends in a kiss (you didn’t know that?)

I seriously love tulips and thought her bouquet was lovely!

Okay these toasts always get emotional for everyone!

Karaoke for everyone!!

Really….everyone!  Travis and Brandt did an outstanding job (they tell me they are the “professionals” out of the family!)

Heather your CD is ready!!!  Email me for details!!!

Jil and Matt Get Married!

High school friends, Matt and Jil. like many, met up again years after high school was over.  Well, as they say, one thing led to another and they found true love.

Please join me for their big day at Edmond, Oklahoma’s Creekside Wedding Chapel!

Let’s just say the girls (they each bring wonderful children into this marriage), were very much about the getting ready phase.

The boys, not so much as the girls, but were will to stop for photos.

I’m telling you, Matt looks like he’s going to bust.

I love first dances.

Father/daughter dances are a close second.

Yup, a super time was had by all.

Even the younger set had a blast!

These girls LOVED the bouquet toss!

But only one could catch it.

Fast forward to the end.

Jil I will contact you when your CD is ready!!

Ashley and Jerad’s Wedding

Welcome to the “barn”.  Well, that’s where they said they were getting married when they hired me for their wedding July 24, 2010.

1I guess that’s how Jerad’s grandparents refer to this beautiful little plot of land (and perhaps the structure in the background there) in Mustang, OK.  It’s got everything:  pond, trees, grass…everything you need for a lovely outdoor wedding.

23The little blond is Ashley’s daughter.  She would NOT take up with me until I took this particular photo.  (Guess I got her good side.)

I do believe the entire family made it out for the big day.  78910111213
