We started off at their home to meet with Donna. I don't think we've ever arrived to a home on the wedding day, that had a more peaceful and calm atmosphere. The style of decorating just lent itself to that and now I want to incorporate some of their elements into our home (ahh, the bell fountain is what I'm on the search for). There was so much unique spaces to incorporate into the imagery, we had a wonderful time utilizing these spaces.
We then headed over to Morgan Hill Country Club to meet up with Alden who was busy setting up for their outdoor ceremony. The ceremony was jut beautiful, filled with so much thought, and woven with Alden and Donna's uniqueness. Just a couple highlights: they had a sand ceremony that involved all their quests, and then they kneeled and said a prayer chant 100 times together. It was wonderful to witness.
Following the ceremony, they received their guests, including one guest that Donna was not expecting to be there and brought tears to her eyes (and mine too watching the reaction). We then buzzed off in some golf carts to the rolling hills to have fun with them and their special attendants. A word that truly describes them, fun-loving. They were so silly and just have a blast with one another. Then it was time for the reception that was filled with wonderful dancing and laughter. A joyous occasion and we felt so privileged to be a part of it.
Thank you Donna and Alden, we truly had a wonderful time with you, thank you for sharing your day and yourselves with us. We wish you a beautiful lifetime of marriage.
Alden's Dad passed away 2 years ago, and they wanted a way to incorporate his memory into the day:
