| Hi April, We were totally thrilled with the ceremony. We have had so many, many compliments about how beautiful and meaningful it was. "Thank you" just seems so inadequate. I hope I have the opportunity to pass your name along at some point so others can be as lucky as we were to have you. Love, Ginnie & Herb Photo thanks to "Marc Briatack of Dynamarcphoto" |
