Honeymoon in Paradise

For our honeymoon, we traveled to beautiful Paradise Island in the Bahamas. Nana and Grandpa were generous enough to let us stay at their time share at the Sunrise Beach Villas. It was a quiet and beautiful collection of condos on their own private beach. A mile away was the uber-hotel, Atlantis where we frequented their fancy restaurants (The $50 buffet was to die for!).

The Wedding

Saturday, May 20, 2006. Cape Henlopen, Delaware. It was a beautiful, sunny day on the beach... a perfect day for a wedding. We were married by our good friend Jimmy Sarakatsannis, and surrounded by our family and friends in the beauty of the brilliant ocean. The ceremony was preceded by Gramps playing the bagpipes as my father walked me down the sandy aisle. We wrote our vows and each chose a reading to make the ceremony more personal. The reception followed with a beach casual atmosphere under a pavilion. It was the perfect way to celebrate our new marriage. For the centerpieces, Jimmy made a total 180 candles from recycled glass jars! ...Enough words, here are some photos!
