MaryLou and Peter Edwards, long-time friends and neighbors of the bride were in attendance.

Tony stood at the alter with his older brother Nick who served as best man.

The bride's best friend and bride's maid Heather Anderson entered the church. She was dressed in an antique floor-length dress of ecu with pink flowered print. She wore a wreath of pink flowers on her head.

She was followed by the bride. Mary looked beautiful in an antique floor-length dress of ecu lace with a waltz-length veil.

She made her way up the aisle and joined her groom under the pink flowered wedding arch.

Then the pastor began the ceremony . . .
"Mary and Tony, you have come here today to enter into a bond of marriage. I ask that you remember, as with any aspect of life, marriage is a journey, it has its ups and downs, its trials and its triumphs. You will not only be joined by the love you share, but also by your hopes, your dreams and by your promise to remain together through time as husband and wife", said the pastor.

"Tony, do you promise to love, honor, cherish and respect Mary, to encourage her and stand by her for the rest of your life, and be her best friend forever and from this day forward, your heart will be her home? ", he asked.
"I do", said Tony, as he placed a gold ring on Mary's finger.

"Mary, do you promise to love honor, cherish and respect Tony, to encourage him and stand by him for the rest of your life, and be his best friend forever and from this day forward, your heart will be his home?", the pastor asked.
"I do", said Mary, as she placed a gold ring on his finger.
'You have made your vows and promises to each other. From this moment forth, always look to your fortune and remember what you can create together. Remember, that at last, your lonely days are over. By the power of your love and the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife", he said.

"Tony, you may kiss your bride!"

"Ladies and gentlemen, I introduce for the first time Mr. and Mrs. Tony Carras."

The wedding party and guests walked to the reception in the social hall.

Tony cut the first slice of wedding cake . . .

And shoved it into Mary's mouth.

She laughed good naturally with Tony.

Hi Daisy,

Congratulations! to Mary and Tony on their marriage. I enjoyed reading and seeing all of the great pictures that you took. I loved the wedding vows and the candid shots. Mary looked very beautiful in her wedding gown and Tony very handsome in his suit. I wish them the best on their life together.

Thanks for sharing.

PS to anyone interested--really don't like this new system--at least not so far. I lost the first time I tried to post--it just automatically rolled up and I couldn't type, covered the line I had written and I couldn't type anything. Also, the emoticons are very, very difficult to see and I'm having trouble finding things I want to use. I tried enlarging them but then they form a single line which seems to go on forever. Sorry, to whom ever made the change but it's just not working for me. So sad as I love using the emoticons and reading posts with them in.

Hello Daisy! Enjoyed your story. I don't remember some of these folks. I'm used to seeing the Rhys's clan. LoL I enjoyed anyway. You are always soooo great with these vows and pics and all. Great Job!

@Lilly, I agree 100%. Can't stand the way it has gone down. Need to post our grips in a diff location. For others to join in. If you don't mind, I will copy your comments and post in another location and respond.

Oh, I forgot to mention, I found that you need to add a lot of Spacing after your first entry, that way it won't be all crunched up. Try that next time.

BBdoll, go ahead and move it if you want to. I put it here because I was very, very frustrated. I'm not sure if it will help but it is an accurate portrayal of the problems that I'm having. Had some difficultly with this post as well.

It wanted to put the title down here rather than in the title line.

Now I'm going to go and play some TS2 and have some fun.
