Heather and David's Wedding at Duke Gardens Amphitheater!

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Heather and David live in San Francisco. They are both environmentalists and met at graduate school at Duke. Heather's parents live in Virginia and David's parents live in Massachusetts. So, they decided to have their wedding in North Carolina at Duke Gardens amphitheater. They contacted me by email last fall and we made all the arrangements by email and USPO. I did not meet them in person until their rehearsal. Their wedding day, May 9, 2010, was a gorgeous day, pleasant temperature, and a gentle breeze. The park was quite crowded with folks who took advantage of the nice weather so the parking was difficult for the wedding guests but we managed to start pretty much on time after all. </div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-xPHWnnKlEgZTxQqr_72HC3FxySKwnQp0Yq8pJvzbeMGBcHvpxy8yn_ntsUJk5xGgV_3gRyxPkE_8SziLij_mYMCGalfGyZwdfLG-IN6oTRbOw1hKlX05OmIxqAOvMwbWk45DLufoZpM/s1600/HeatherDavidWeddingDukeGardensKayelily+0509100016.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="323" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-xPHWnnKlEgZTxQqr_72HC3FxySKwnQp0Yq8pJvzbeMGBcHvpxy8yn_ntsUJk5xGgV_3gRyxPkE_8SziLij_mYMCGalfGyZwdfLG-IN6oTRbOw1hKlX05OmIxqAOvMwbWk45DLufoZpM/s400/HeatherDavidWeddingDukeGardensKayelily+0509100016.JPG" width="400" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Dave and I processed in first. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicA_1CxALu0fnaragMw8RFdWnSLEB2wS1Lzq3wI-FmWbduNbZXU3czJP3UbmfQT14HlUUF0ZKrYNQ2etGn6bq0bQhFyab-gmTDMzJ8VOxeaQpfxwjix5atYNq_hRmN7yBAcmhjaGJTX8w/s1600/HeatherDavidWeddingDukeGardensKayelily+0509100017.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicA_1CxALu0fnaragMw8RFdWnSLEB2wS1Lzq3wI-FmWbduNbZXU3czJP3UbmfQT14HlUUF0ZKrYNQ2etGn6bq0bQhFyab-gmTDMzJ8VOxeaQpfxwjix5atYNq_hRmN7yBAcmhjaGJTX8w/s400/HeatherDavidWeddingDukeGardensKayelily+0509100017.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Then David's parents, Judy and Dave, were next. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjT_y1h3zFONyS2zD_5XnmKhxWZM44p7-fZY9okVw9TqiDE82_qwF4jrWyWo7GmHEcIqfNc8hw4K4VVcjuK7hOKo4EgSNr2if5ovxuJXmtsgav9f5TtWEbnnd43FYmfEu0jH50z7UjVs30/s1600/HeatherDavidWeddingDukeGardensKayelily+0509100018.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjT_y1h3zFONyS2zD_5XnmKhxWZM44p7-fZY9okVw9TqiDE82_qwF4jrWyWo7GmHEcIqfNc8hw4K4VVcjuK7hOKo4EgSNr2if5ovxuJXmtsgav9f5TtWEbnnd43FYmfEu0jH50z7UjVs30/s400/HeatherDavidWeddingDukeGardensKayelily+0509100018.JPG" width="300" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Heather's mother, Susan, is escorted in by Tom, David's brother and our best man.

I carried in two white roses which I gave to them to give to their mothers as I said: <i>"Mothers plant so their children may harvest. Mothers rejoice when their children are happy. Mothers cry when their children hurt. Mothers’ hearts begin to smile from the moment they see their child’s eyes for the first time.  Mothers welcome pain and burden to give their sons and daughters the gift of life. Heather and David will now present their mothers each with a white rose, as symbols of their enduring gratitude for their unconditional love, their unyielding strength in times of hardship, and for the selfless sacrifices they have made for their children." </i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvggvypUuH-U58iMK4GjS0WnpfA5j7hOsuVaYowoBLncKZUcGeN6Uvg6cC6unLKSnWxzLr7fzjzcUqNG2JfNdyDYStfQci0FwdnP8q-hv9NUPv8f0oVI0zmDTMAt3Tm3whotyLez6zg3k/s1600/HeatherDavidWeddingDukeGardensKayelily+0509100031.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="298" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvggvypUuH-U58iMK4GjS0WnpfA5j7hOsuVaYowoBLncKZUcGeN6Uvg6cC6unLKSnWxzLr7fzjzcUqNG2JfNdyDYStfQci0FwdnP8q-hv9NUPv8f0oVI0zmDTMAt3Tm3whotyLez6zg3k/s400/HeatherDavidWeddingDukeGardensKayelily+0509100031.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjC6eXDolV-Po6s0hdTBnZdbWy89UBAw2kxmfy-l2Z4aZUo0WqK9nqdKruPf0klthF_0LSg6EuogggrzVMAIkB78R7QQ6XIa96IuAK8r_n0hwqjmdiesLlzPFSyJtyn6Bia1X2owswq-3I/s1600/HeatherDavidWeddingDukeGardensKayelily+0509100034.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="355" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjC6eXDolV-Po6s0hdTBnZdbWy89UBAw2kxmfy-l2Z4aZUo0WqK9nqdKruPf0klthF_0LSg6EuogggrzVMAIkB78R7QQ6XIa96IuAK8r_n0hwqjmdiesLlzPFSyJtyn6Bia1X2owswq-3I/s400/HeatherDavidWeddingDukeGardensKayelily+0509100034.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">David's cousin, Mark, read First Corinthians during the ceremony. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6380j31_wi-tsWbEqXMQRgiMw-_rT721YCTN-1zzpjKmsUETAhUWgMMkx_YeeUbtsbaypKmIkxzN_XpzKJQ7twfOyCuVdrxiO_CMzwBgdRKXe7dfhfMazcOizWrRXQnII0I2-owgWenI/s1600/HeatherDavidWeddingDukeGardensKayelily+0509100039.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh6380j31_wi-tsWbEqXMQRgiMw-_rT721YCTN-1zzpjKmsUETAhUWgMMkx_YeeUbtsbaypKmIkxzN_XpzKJQ7twfOyCuVdrxiO_CMzwBgdRKXe7dfhfMazcOizWrRXQnII0I2-owgWenI/s400/HeatherDavidWeddingDukeGardensKayelily+0509100039.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;">Then Heather's aunt, Holly, presented a reading from <i>Gift from the Sea</i> by Anne Morrow Lindbergh. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGtoZtDvtGZ0DboWEm10cEi6F-yylLp0SLknoWGJ_gLZJX8oD4dAyio2AJjljEPyvl9vHcKzoCVutzC9gv2bYEzvyGCAifMh8a52ONvST8FncZM-kEn7qhnTM7pwxLp7OApSOPUs50-Xk/s1600/HeatherDavidWeddingDukeGardensKayelily+0509100040.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGtoZtDvtGZ0DboWEm10cEi6F-yylLp0SLknoWGJ_gLZJX8oD4dAyio2AJjljEPyvl9vHcKzoCVutzC9gv2bYEzvyGCAifMh8a52ONvST8FncZM-kEn7qhnTM7pwxLp7OApSOPUs50-Xk/s400/HeatherDavidWeddingDukeGardensKayelily+0509100040.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: left;">The Wedding Address was next and we included the story of how David and Heather met and fell in love, what attracted them to each other and what they look forward to in marriage.
