Welcome to part two…

The Wedding Mass

This is where I have interject a little story to set up the next picture…

Fr Todd did the homily (sermon) and he happens to know Tony and Skotti quite well. At one point he told a story and read from an email that Tony had sent him. One relevant fact you need to know is that Tony is 48 years old. There’s probably a cliche or two that we could drum up about a very handsome (I think Skotti would say “gorgeous”), exceedingly nice, personable, “in charge”, and VERY eligible man like Tony who has never married. To dispel any such notions Tony wrote this, in part:

As people see Skotti and I get married they may come to the conclusion that it took me 48 years to find someone like Skotti and although true, the real fact is it took 48 years for God to prepare me for HER – someone that is worthy of her holiness and her goodness.

How AWESOME is that!! Tony’s response was this photo:

The vows…

Flowers for Mary…

You think they’re happy much?

I just LOVE this shot of Mary Carter and Jim watching their mom and Tony walk down the isle as husband and wife…

A quick shot I grabbed of Skotti while we waited for Tony to track down his brother

These next three I think would be GREAT as a framed set so here they are…

Next up, the party…
