Surprises can be good!
Ever have one of those days that goes a completely different direction than you'd planned? After gathering at the Arboretum (ostensibly for a family portrait) instead we were handed this...
Clint is Ro's nephew and we have long considered Lisa a full-fledged Harris, so we were ecstatically surprised and thrilled at this turn of events. The ceremony was exactly their style... simple, heartfelt, and completely wonderful. I'm so glad I brought my own camera because we were able to get some great shots of our own, although there will be much more professional ones to come soon.
We were all in white, and the bride wore blue!
The groom...
Tatum was a little disappointed, she thought she was the bride...
Easton enjoyed playing pass me the baby...
BG and Tatum...
The bride and groom set off in style...
Congratulations guys!!!! We couldn't be happier!
Cheers,
Jenny

Hello Jenny, what a lovely day. So many peoples spend so much time and have so much aggro planning their weddings that they really don't enjoy them as much as they might have done. If you get the chance to visit my blog you will find that I have given you an award.

I love the idea of the bride being in blue and everyone else in white, the blue dress looked lovely. What a nice suprise.
