A wonderful weekend for a wedding

Jessica and Doug were married this past weekend.  It was a beautiful weekend.  The ceremony was Friday night and attended by a few family members.  It took place in the church where Eva works, in the Thompson Room.  We enjoyed the intimate group that assembled to witness their vows.  Sara was there via 'facetime' but we lost the connection to Erik so he was unable to watch with us from somewhere in Africa.  

Saturday night was the big family and friends reception at a wonderful place downtown Grand Rapids.  It was so perfectly 'Jessica and Doug' in a very charming old warehouse building that was so nicely decorated. The food was fantastic, the dancing was energetic and everyone had a wonderful time.  
I feel blessed to be a part of this past weekend and am thankful for such a wonderful niece that found just the right man for her. 

Blessings to all that attended and to all that have played a part in the lives of these two wonderful people.

  1. I agree to all, the nicest party I've ever attended. Except you forgot to mention the handsome, bearded man who practically ran his sister down the aisle. I need his number.
    (excellent pictures, by the way. The one of Matt and Grandma might have to go in a frame.)
