A beautiful wedding and gracious giving


The following entry is from our wedding website blog....

Once in a while we are fortunate to be part of a special wedding celebration. Recently Dave and I were asked t photograph a several day wedding at a beautiful resort in Mexico. That alone is enough to talk about. But the bride and groom did something really special.

They told all of their guests that they really had no need for gifts. Instead they wanted to do something to help the people near the area of the resort. So they setup a Foundation to fund a few of the existing local charities. Guests were asked to make a donation to this charity in lieu of a gift. Something truly remarkable in any time, especially now with so many people in need.
