Wedding in Kentucky

Well, we did it.
Apologies for our lapse in communication, but we've been a bit preoccupied. I have been told that our wedding was actually easy compared to most. However, it was still quite an ordeal to execute: handmade invitations, marriage counseling, couple counseling, flowers, dress shopping, coordinating "catering" from the Church body, entertaining family and friends, caring for a one-year old baby, finishing up classes and one degree, planning around 5 job schedules, and the usual wedding details... it looks like a lot on paper, but when all is said and done, it really didn't feel as if that much happened.

As far as I'm concerned, we really couldn't have asked for a better experience. We had just what we wanted: a "shared elopement in a church." We had a massive thunderstorm beforehand, and I'll be darned (as my Grandpa would say) if we didn't even get a prolonged rumble of thunder during our wedding kiss. We want to thank friends and family for flying out, for supporting us from afar, for keeping our family in your prayers, thoughts, ideas, vibes, choose-your-own-adventures, or whatever it is that people do these days. We feel loved, and are grateful for it.

We have literally thousands of pictures to weed through. We've gone through our 800 official wedding ones, and here are some of my favorites (that i sent to the Fairfield family). We will try to post more, or just put them up on a photo sharing site.

Love you all!
The Fairfields

You look beautiful! I got a little teary eyed looking at you getting married. We talked about it for so long and there you were a beautiful bride. I wish I could have been there. Good luck in this adventure we call life!

Oh, I'm melting from the gorgeous nostalgia of it...and still cursing the gods that I couldn't be there.

Thanks for your note, I love you so much and think Lisa is just perfect for you and WOW...she looked elegant and lovely.

Soon.
Very soon.
