Here are a few pictures from our ceremony that I wanted to share. We were fortunate enough to be able to have our ceremony outside, because the weather was absolutely beautiful. After the ceremony, we went to a beach a few miles down the road to take some more pictures. The umbrella was a total spur of the moment idea. One of our friends that came with us spotted it and decided we had to use it as a prop in a few pictures. How fitting for a rainbow umbrella at a lesbian wedding? ;)We shared this with a few of our friends locally, but are planning on a larger celebration with friends and family this time next year on our one year anniversary. We are so fortunate to live in a state that will
recognize legal marriages from neighboring states, and that Mary's job offers same sex partner benefits. Since I'm still job hunting, that is a huge blessing! We have some other pictures with the umbrella, but both of us were laughing too much. We did have one friend with us who was straight, and we made her take pictures with the umbrella as well. She was such a good sport and went along with our silliness.
This was taken at a beach a few miles from where we live and is one of my more favorite pictures of the two of us.
