She Said, "I do."

She said, "I do." at the ceremony at Arcola Mills Historic site on the scenic St. Croix River, a perfect spot for two outdoorsy people.  Dress was informal.  Two boys in tuxedo tshirts carried the rings.

A string quartet, a ukelele, and some kind of bagpipes provided the beautiful music.

After the ceremony those who wanted to followed the wedding party on a five minute nature walk along the river.

Simple gold bands signify love and commitment.

Rain forced us inside but that was okay.  After a wonderful dinner catered by Sawatdee we had a barn dance.  Pig's Eye Landing provided the music and a woman in cowboy boots told us when to promenade.  I did both the chicken dance and the bunny hop.

As we left in the evening luminaries lighted the path to the cars. A nice touch.

Congratulations to the happy couple!
