Exchanging Vows

Unity Rock (Rock-climbing themed wedding)
TJ made a rock they could hook their carabiners into, signifying their unity with Jesus Christ, The Rock and each other.

Introducing the happy couple

Ashley enjoyed greeting guests as they left for the reception.
(I wanted you to see her headpiece too!)

Away to the reception
(or a short trip around town before coming back to the church for pictures)

The bride with her sisters, Tara (L) and Katie (R)
This one makes me cry.

Arriving at the reception

So in love!

The lovely reception was held in the Groom's family  backyard.

At first they were nice...

but that wouldn't be like them.

You got something on your face!

First dance

TJ and Ashley Parnell.
May the Lord bless your marriage.
We love you both!

How Beautiful!!
Congratulations all around to all involved. So glad you had lovely weather. The photos are gorgeous and those colors are PERFECT!!
I bet you're exhausted. Marrying off a daughter is quite labor intense. Get some rest "Mama".
Thanks for sharing with us!!

The unity rock is such a wonderful idea, Angie! I loved the flowers. They were so bright and beautiful!
Thanks so much for taking the time to share the pictures with us! I loved them!
Ohhhh, but TJ and Ashley look so young! (Probably about as young as my son and daughter-in-law when they got married,hm?) *smile* *sigh*

What a beautiful bride! I love the idea of the Rock that's Jesus binding their marriage together. That could be used even without the climbing emphasis. Congratulations to the happy couple!
