Amanda & Brent - Married, With Pets

This is my first wedding at the Evangel Pentecostal Assembly and I'm sure it's Amanda's first, as well:

  Her mom, Roberta, is lighting the ceremonial candles:

 And so does Cathy, the groom's mother. This symbolizes the love and allegiance each family has for their children:

A flowery way is prepared by Charlotte:

 "We have gathered here in God's presence to witness the marriage vows of Amanda and Brent":

 TJ comes with creative ways to bear the ring:

Brent: "This ring I give to you as symbol of my love and I pledge to you my loyalty and devotion until we are separated by death":

 Amanda: " :) :) :)":

  You may kiss the bride. Charlotte, you may watch:

 Good job, guys:

 The bride and groom bring the love of the two families together in a united love of the new couple:

 Back at the house, Diesel is very excited to congratulate everyone:

 He even switches places with Brent for a while:

 Something new for Brent:

 Something blue for Amanda:

 The geckos are so happy to see her:

 Francis really wanted to be the ring bearer:

 We go the the Art Gallery for a few more pictures:

 The place is busy with a different event, so we can only use the stairs:

 The party is at the Coast Edmonton East Hotel, in Sherwood Park:

 It's my first time here and I'm impressed:

 Everything is blue, including the candy bar:

 There's plenty for everyone:

 Not enough? Here's the biggest desert buffet I've ever seen:

 Still not enough? There's cake, as well. Made by Amanda herself:

 Speeches = drama:

The best man - aka the groom's dad shows everyone how Brent changed his preferences in shoe color over the years:

 The tear gas stimulates the corneal nerves in the eyes to cause tearing. You can obtain the same effect with Amanda's speech:

 Congratulations, Amada and Brent! Thank you so much for everything!
