On Friday, July 18, 2008 Amy and Steve were married in Milwaukee at the beautiful South Shore Park Pavilion. Amy and Daniel have known each other for years and still keep in touch even though she's moved to California. Although it was a bit warm at times, it was certainly a very joyful and beautiful wedding - enjoy the photos! IMG_9478 Daniel spent a very long time preparing, and 12 hours that day setting up the beautiful space with various flowers, linens, and candles galore IMG_9487 IMG_9513 Candles along the runner...pretty, but dangerous? IMG_9517 Last-minute arrivals... IMG_9519 Daniel even set up a little seating area to the back corner of the pavilion - what a pretty photo there in the background...I wonder where he got that or who took it? IMG_9546 Children have no built-in programming on how to be flower girls or ring bearers... IMG_9555 Trying to impart such wisdom during the ceremony is usually very cute and entertaining...but not effective... IMG_9581 Brides on the other hand know quite well how to find the front of the room! IMG_9599 Of course, we can't be perfect and Amy did mis-place the ring - luckily half the brides maids rushed to the back and emptied her purse in a back room in search of it and found it in no time IMG_9602 IMG_9628 And voila that's it - Amy and Steve are married! IMG_9630 IMG_9637 This expression is the usual one on Amy's face - she's always so HAPPY! IMG_9640 Everyone in the wedding party was cheerful just after the ceremony IMG_9644 IMG_9649 Down to the Milwaukee Lakefront/Lake Michigan for photos afterwards IMG_9650 IMG_9654 Our good friend Jamie was one of the Matrons of Honor IMG_9685 IMG_9696 IMG_9697 After the wedding is over Daniel switches to become my assistant - here he holds a lens as his own bouquet IMG_9724 IMG_9733 Amy with Steve's Mom, Tricia IMG_9739 The happy couple with Milwaukee in the background IMG_9749 IMG_9810 The pavilion later in the night (many people talked outside to escape the heat!)
