celebrating a wedding past

our day 16 years ago




It is simply lovely and profound how a wedding can bring you back to reflecting on your promises made to each other. Here we are on a boat at the lake district in England for the wedding of Ashley and Helen Peden a year ago last spring. The guests were taken to the location of the ceremony across the lake. I love my hat here. Women in the UK wear hats or fascinators to all their special occasions. I have a favorite milliner in London which I have linked to this photo.



everyone was served pink champagne





Ashley and Helen shown here signing the wedding register, which takes place just after the vows and in the presence of the wedding guests and witnesses, something that we  had not seen before in America.  Magical
