Shannon & Brad's Ceremony

Shannon and Brad were married on a bright, clear afternoon in February. Their intimate ceremony was held at the Houston Arboretum, in a secluded little space near open water. With just close family and friends (and some turtles) looking on, they said their I-do's, celebrating afterward with dinner.

Between the ceremony and dinner, I was able to take them throughout the grounds of the arboretum and over to the Sabine Street bridge for some "just married" shots. I'll be making them a slideshow for their reception, which will be held this weekend and will welcome a slightly larger crowd : )

I thought it was really adorable that Shannon's dad brought along with him a childhood picture of his daughter... showing it to Brad as he presented Shannon's hand in marriage. Dad was proud of that picture after the ceremony, showing it to everyone. Such a precious memory for a precious day.
