Ian & Laura's Wedding, Chatham Lighthouse Beach



Wrapped up in her white overcoat and white scarf with red hearts, Laura was the picture of a beautiful and very happy winter bride. Ian had just arrived back in the States after being in Iraq and was so thrilled to be marrying Laura on the Chatham Lighthouse Beach; the love in their eyes as they gazed at one another during my service was very touching. I don't even think this couple noticed the single digit temperatures.

Lianne and Jill Meyers, (the proprietor/owner of the Captain's House Inn in Chatham with her husband, James), took photos of Laura and Ian's ceremony by the sea. The sun setting created the perfect lighting for their intimate service, and onlookers watched from the Chatham Light lookout as Laura and Ian confirmed their love with custom vows, hugging and kissing one another with such glee when I pronounced them "husband and wife".

Seals frolicked in the ocean behind this photo that Lianne took of Laura and Ian; it was as if they, too, were celebrating the joyous event! Laura and Ian exuded love and happiness. I wish them the best in their journey through life together. Congratulations to Ian and Laura!
