There are many people we wish we could have invited to our wedding.
Here are our vows and a few more pictures although the photographer has yet to send us the whole disc.

Andy's vows
Tina; Before God and man, without doubt or hesitation,
with all my heart, I marry you.
You are - and have been to me - God’s mercy and grace.
I never knew that I would love again
and I could have never known how much.
Forsaking all others, I will cherish you always.
I will fan the flame of our affection
with words and deeds of devotion and appreciation.
I will honor you always.
I will seek your security, your rest and your joy.
I will serve you in sickness and in health,
in riches and in poverty, until God separates us by death.
I will always recognize you as God’s gift to me
and never forget how precious you are to Him.
I will guide us towards holiness.
I will love those you love, offering friendship
and fatherly affection to Jessica & Danielle.
I give you my all and trust you with my all.
Please take me as your husband. Please be my wife.
Tina's vows
Andy, I stand here today before God, our family, and our friends to proclaim my love for you.
In you, God has provided a healing in my heart and soul that I never thought possible.
Your words have washed over me like cleansing waters. My cup overflows.
I admire your love and devotion to the Lord,
And I know His love is your standard and your strength, and that you love me with that love.
In this same love I promise to respect you, to honor you, and to love you
I promise to love and care for your children, Josiah, Katy and Alex as though they were my own.
I promise to pray with you and for you.
I promise to support you in all you do.
I promise to help you serve the Lord and to grow in his love.
I will remember that you are not mine alone but that you are 1st His, that we are united by Him and in Him.
The Lord will be our strength, our hiding place, our high tower and our intercessor.
Above all, I promise to love you with all that I am as I love my own body and with the love of Christ
I am blessed to have your love and honored to share my life with you.
It is my joy to take you as my husband.
Today I will no longer be my own; I freely and fearlessly give myself to you Andy, to be your wife, and your soul mate.
To have and to hold forsaking all others, as long as we both shall live.
