Rachel and Chris - April 25th, 2009

Rachel and Chris were married on April 25th at the Historic Trinity Lutheran church in Soulard.  They picked a gorgeous spring day for their wedding.  I can tell that Rachel is a very special person...she made both her father and her husband cry when they both saw her for the first time in her wedding dress.  We arranged a quick "first look" session for Rachel's dad in the sanctuary prior to the wedding...and he shed quite a few tears when he saw how beautiful she

was in her wedding gown.  And then when Chris saw her walking into the church...well...the picture shows his reaction.  There were SO MANY beautiful little children in and at this wedding...Maria was just beside herself taking their pictures all day.  The reception was held at the Randall Gallery -- one of our favorite places!  They always take very good care of us!!

Pastor Marth had the honor of playing golf with the groom and some of the other men on the day before the wedding.  During his sermon he pulled out his 3 wood (that's a golf club...for those of you who are golf clueless...LOL) -- and he showed it to Chris.  He told him that would be the last time he'll see a golf club for a LONG time!!!  :)
