Halloween Fun

In amongst the other ghosts, goblins,and Halloween characters, Matt, Cheyenne, and Owen stopped to visit and share their Halloween fun. Owen was dressed as a bat. Although the picture doesn't do it justice, there were bat wings on the cute costume he was wearing...


It didn't take too long in to the night before he'd had enough and was ready to go home!

Wedding Reception

The wedding reception was held later that evening with the traditional cake...

the cutting, and eating, of the cake...



the first dance...


and the throwing of the bouquet.


The whole wedding day was beautiful. We wish Matthew, Cheyenne, and Owen every happiness in their new lives together.

Wedding Ceremony

The wedding day finally arrived on Thursday, October 30th. Matt & Cheyenne were married at Celebration Pointe Reception Center in the late afternoon. Although my photography skills pail in comparison to those of the Brooke's on each side of the family (niece on my side, sister-in-law on Bart's), hopefully their passable. The ceremony was beautiful. The officiator and Matt arrived first.

Followed by the Best Man, Matt's dad Bart, and the Maid of Honor, Cheyenne's sister Casey, who lit the tapers for the unity candle.

Matt's friend Kris also stood for him on the groom's side, with Jordan doing the honors of a bridesmaid.

Matt and Cheyenne's son, Owen, came next as the ring bearer...

...and promptly through the ring pillow when he arrived with the rest of the men.

Cheyenne's father, Jon, walked her down the aisle.

I missed the flower girl, Cheyenne's niece Piper, coming down the aisle, but did get the brides side after they were all lined up.

The bride and groom were beautiful and handsome respectively.

The unity candle was lit.

Vows and rings were exchanged.

And a new life began...






Bridal Shower

Chantelle and I gave a bridal shower for Matt's fiance, Cheyenne, on Saturday, October 18th. After playing the bride and groom name game and a rousing game of bridal pictionary, we had light eats and Cheyenne opened the great gifts. It was a wonderful opportunity for Cheyenne to meet some more members of the extended families...
