On a weekend that was threatened with a hurricane, April Burgess and Joshua Vight became Mr. and Mrs. Vight. As I’ve done previously, this wedding will become a series of posts dedicated to this couple and their big day. Instead of torrential rain and mighty gusts of wind, this couple was blessed with a beautiful and cool day up at the Log Cabin, complete with a gentle breeze during this outdoor ceremony. 

At four o’clock on Sunday, September 5, 2010 guests were seated and the ceremony began. Among the seated guests was a single chair, upon which April placed a single rose in memory of her late father. This is a special way to not only remember loved ones, but to make their presence known and and real for everyone else in attendence.

Once the bridesmaids walked down the aisle to “Canon in D” and the bride made her way down to a song entitled “Maybe” (all carrying flowers by Durocher Florist), there was the lighting of a unity candle, exchanging of vows, and smiles filled with excitement before the ceremony came to a close.

Luckily, Portraits by David was there to capture every moment. 

Next up: the reception!
