A wedding in the mist


Michael and Dawn came down from Pittsburgh for their wedding on the beach. We had it at the River to the Sea Preserve. They have been staying at Disney World and drove out for the day. After the wedding they intended to head up to see a bit of St. Augustine before returning to Disney. The day was very overcast despite the forecast of partly cloudy. There was a light mist falling but it wasn't enough to dampen our spirits. The clouds made a stunning backdrop for the ceremony. Dawn's two daughters and Michael's two sons were included with a medallion ceremony where the boys were presented with shark's tooth necklaces and the girls got more feminine necklaces as tokens of the day The couple had a sand ceremony with mint green and navy blue sand and topped it off with sand from the beach so that they could remember our beautiful beach forever.
