The Wedding Day

Our nephew, John, got married on Friday, Oct 17, on the beach in Coronado. In the morning, we went to where the ceremony would take place. He and 5 of his groomsmen had raked the beach and erected a set of bamboo posts to be draped with flowers later. As a reward for their labor, they went surfing! Here are some pictures of the event.































I call this one "His Last Solo Ride"























The ceremony began around 5, almost without a hitch. I'm not sure the photos do it justice, but the bridesmaids were wearing hot pink and the adornments were, too. The bride, groom, and wedding party were barefoot.



















































































After the ceremony, when the sun was almost setting...


























...we were shuttled to the reception for a cocktail hour while the wedding party had pictures taken. Then came dinner, speeches, and dancing.






















More tomorrow!
