May 17, 2008

Rachel and Leo were married on May 17th at The St. Ignatius Church in SE Portland on a very warm, no it was hot, day. There was a very large shade tree near the church that served as the perfect place to take photos and keep everyone out of the sun too. The georgeous dress. The church has a elementary school on it's grounds and that's where the girl's got ready in the school's library. It was very colorful and lots of room!

The Groom witnessing his bride walk toward him down the aisle, I love that moment of the ceremony Father and Bride walking down the aisle
Full Catholic Mass. Everyone sits. I believe the ceremony was a little over an hour and contained readings from their brothers, and an amazing group of singers.





The Groomsmen
The ceremony was traditonal and very beautiful. I learned a lot about the couple, how they met, their beliefs, and their family backgounds Exchanging of the Rings
The Kiss!

They're Married!
The Reception was held at the Columbia Edgwater Country Club in North Portland The Beautiful Couple, we couldn't actually go onto the golf course, but this little area was right next to the parking lot
Look, it's Mt Hood! This area was on the opposite side of the parking lot.
Yes, that's the airport behind the couple







Cute Cake Topper! That's a nice tradition I'm noticing more and more.
