It was expected to rain but thankfully the clouds withheld. Francesca presented her mother and father each with a sweet handkerchief. Her mother’s reads “Mom, use this to wipe away all of your happy tears on my wedding day. Today a bride, tomorrow a wife, always your daughter.” When handing this to her mom, tears of joy and happiness started to roll down her cheeks, she tried to withhold from using what the handkerchief is intended for but could not resist. As she brought it up to her cheeks she smiled at Francesca and she also began to cry. Her dad not knowing what was happening said “what’s going on”, and we all began to laugh. Dad’s are always there to bring a smile to our faces. Her dad then lead her to a beautiful blue 1968 Plymouth Satellite and drove her to her prince charming who was awaiting her at the church. This is such a special time not only for the bride and groom but for our parents, they are entrusting their precious child with a person that they know is going to take care of them. The baton has been passed on from them to their new husband.

From the time I met Jeff and Francesca I can see their love for each other has grown, the light in their eyes has gotten brighter. I am so truly happy for the both of you and I know that you are going to have many beautiful days ahead.
