Who’s planning a Military, Firefighter or Police style wedding? Proud and patriotic, my brother and sister-in-law had a military wedding {Army} complete with dress blues and arched Sabers—it was really beautiful! -If you are planning a military wedding, be sure to check with your service branch or chaplain in regards to formalities and rank specifications for: attire, seating, sabers vs. swords, traditions and terminology …
I hope you’re filled with inspiration this weekend—by stories of love and courage and by all those uniting in marriage. AND, a special shout of love & congrats to our graphic designer, Robin—who gets married tomorrow 9-10-11—yea Robin & Kevin!
