On Saturday, Katie and Ryan spent a fabulous day getting married in San Marino/Pasadena. They had their ceremony at the beautiful San Marino Community Church. After the ceremony and the Arch of Swords ceremony, Katie and Ryan took off in Ryan’s ultra-cool, restored 1968 Plymouth Barracuda. An awesome send off. It was off to the Ritz Carlton in Pasadena for the reception and an awesome night, full of entertainment. From the 9-piece band from Bob Gail to the special piano performances from their guests, it was non stop action. There was even this sweet ice sculpture. Thanks to Margie McCoy for keeping us in the know and for making everything just right. It was quite the event. Some hightlights:
Flower girl, Camille, was such a sweetie.
Some window action.
I love this straight on shot of Katie…with some texture.

So, what rank is the groom? I don’t know my ranks, but I do feel pride when i see men & women who serve their country (read– me & my family). If the groom reads this…Thank you for all that you have done and will do!
