50 Years Of Wedded Bliss!

What an absolute pleasure it was to witness the renewal of vows between Mr. and Mrs. Wilson. After 50 years of marriage they once again expressed their love for each other before God, family and friends. Mrs. Wilson with her Barbadian rapture evokes a longing to move a little closer to hear her spoken words... her wit is contagious and charm is unmeasurable. You need just look into her beautiful blue eyes to see it... need I say more? Mr. Wilson, with a demeanor so strong yet subtle, kind and soft spoken it is easy to imagine how they fell in love with each other so long ago.
We were honored to be there to capture what was truly a spectacular event that their daughters expertly planned. These ladies are classy... no doubt!
Bolling Air Force Base Officers Club was the perfect backdrop for this amazing couple. Floor to ceiling windows with the mid afternoon sun setting on the reception made for a beautiful glow that filled the room and set the mood. Dexter Fields, as usual, worked his magic on the glorious floral creations and tablescapes and Vince Chapman and his crew had everyone swaying and softly rocking their heads to the cool smokey jazz that infused the room.

Mr. and Mrs. Wilson, Happy Anniversary! We wish you many more years of that ultimate wedded bliss that you obviously have a good handle on!

At one point, there were three of us, telling him that we did not think "you and me" was the name to this "Aretha" song. He gently smiled and started singing the words all the while gently insisting that "yes it is... I know". It tickled me, just a bit when I thought back to the conversation.. thinking this must be the equilevant of my children telling me that I don't know that "The Commadors" sang "Just To Be Close To You".) Life is funny!!
