We Renewed Our Wedding Vows
It's our 45th Anniversary Year - Wes noticed that Lovegrove Gallery in Matlacha on Pine Island was sponsoring a marriage vow renewal event. It was warm, lovely, serious; but fun.Since it is 2011, it is our 45th Anniversary Year. We stepped this Valentines Day up a notch (at Wes's suggestion) and renewed our vows at a Matlacha gallery appropriately called "Lovegroves." The owner, Leoma Lovegrove, doesn't allow photos! But she had a few professional photogs there to shoot the whole thing and I'll find it on facebook. There was a real reverend, veils, bouquets, a walk down the aisle (with the men waiting at the altar), an exchange of vows, an artsy re-marriage certificate hand painted by Leoma, a champagne reception with hors d'oeuvres, wedding cake, Beatles music and more! At the end of the ceremony, we tossed flowers into the canal and sent them off with a wish to benefit our beloved. It was a great night. A couple we met at the pool told us they did this last year and loved it; so we put our $25 down and gave it a whirl! Hope you enjoy the romantic photos! They all have pink or red or other romantic themes!
