Yesterday (Saturday 13th December 2008), we were privileged to attend the wedding of our good friends and fellow divers, Kevin (http://www.scubadiver.cc/forums/member.php?u=6) and Courtney (http://www.scubadiver.cc/forums/member.php?u=19) in Oviedo.
The day started earlier for me than most of the other guests, as I was a bridesmaid (my first time ever, and a complete honor), and we prepared in the Methodist Church in Oviedo from three pm onwards. The photographer arrived at 330pm, and the photos officially began. The ceremony began at four, and the church was beautifully decorated for Christmas. Courtney was the most beautiful bride I have ever seen, and Kevin scrubbed up quite well also :)
The ceremony was full of happy friends and family, and was very emotional, but ran smoothly. Afterwards we took more photos, and met the rest of the wedding party at the Canterbury Retreat. The bridal party had a fabulous introduction there, and and we toasted to the happy couple and the best man’s and maid of honor's speeches.
We settled into a slide-show of pictures of Kevin and Courtney’s life, every thing from baby photos to their recent diving adventures. Dinner was served and it was delicious, with a choice of main course and seconds for all :)
We all got on the dance floor after eating (even TJ!!), and we partied and danced the night away afterwards. At the end of the evening, the bride and groom left in a haze of bubbles (and a “newly decorated” car!).
Congratulations again to Kevin and Courtney Redfield, and best wishes for a long happy married life together. They are departing Florida on Friday for their honeymoon (a cruise), so we expect to see lots more photos guys!!!
