Colin/Kerry

So yesterday the big day FINALLY arrived, and Trev and I got to be a part of and witness our dear friends, Colin and Kerry, vow to stick it out to the end.
*NOTE* - Thank you SO much to those who prayed for good weather. It was raining when the groom and his party arrived but kept clearing and by the time us girls made our way out to the ceremony it had cleared a little and was just cloudy......then, like a smile from heaven, just as Kerry got the end of the aisle and was about to be given to her groom, as if on cue, the sun broke out in full glory and shone down warm on us for the rest of the day. Praise The Lord and Glory to Him!
I had so many great photos and couldn't pick just a few so apologies for the overload!

:: Cutting the cake ::
With 20 people in the wedding party, it goes without saying that we had a blast! Colin and Kerry were so laid back, relaxed and fun. I can't wait to see their photos! The reception was amazing - full of lots of laughing, memories and tears all around. Trev and I both felt so honored to have been able to stand with our friends on their big day and wouldn't have missed it for the world. The couple is honeymooning in Puerto Vallarta for a week and then have a week or so following their return to settle in before it's back to reality. Colin and Kerry, we love you both so very much and wish you all the happiness in the world. Can't wait till your back so we can start hanging out minus the wedding stress.......thanks for the awesome day!

So glad that your day turned out as nice as our here on the mainland. You looked fabulous...and especially for just having a baby! Love all the family shots and the one of Trevor with Denay, you can tell that she already has him wrapped around her pinkie! Thanks for sharing all the pics, I thought that my best friend's wedding was ridiculous with 7 bridesmaids, but 10...wow! She must be an amazing person to call so many close friends!
