Thursday - Wedding!!!

Thursday, September 22, 2022 was Steven and Shaylyn's wedding day!

There are to be official photos from the wedding - these are just a few pictures we took during the day.

Carl had to arrive by noon for pictures "helping" Steve get dressed.

Steve had a custom made suit made by one of his former co-workers who now is in the apparel business...

... initials on his shirt cuffs.

Looks like Carl successfully helped Steve dress!

The wedding venue with chairs all set up.

The groomsmen killing time after getting ready.

A beautiful remembrance of Sue

"Forever in our Hearts 

Those we love don't go away, 

they walk beside us everyday 

unseen, unheard, but always near

still loved, still missed, & very dear"

Carl with his kids (minus Steve)

Steve and Shay's dog Indy (Indiana Jones) was also to be part of the celebration.

The officiant led them through their vows...

Exchanging of rings

The first kiss as husband and wife!

Married!

Why is everyone staring at the fire pole?

There comes the newly married groom!

Who are you waiting for, Steve?

Here she comes!

Safely on the floor

Taco truck pulled up out front of the firehouse for eats!

Waiting for their tacos...

First bite - yum, good!

The party went on well into the night.

The "teaser" video from the professional videographer was provided within 24 hours: https://vimeo.com/753032732   You can see Carl working on Steve's tie.

The videographer also posted a video of their dog, Indy, on Instagram (I think you can see it without having an Instagram account): https://www.instagram.com/p/Ci2oTetgdvr/  In case you can't understand the audio (we couldn't!) it is saying, "I mean look at this thing. I can't imagine a more beautiful thing."
