Megan and Malcolm's Wedding



Malcolm and Megan at Mill Creek Gardens, Mill Creek bordered with wildflowers in the background.


Weddings in general are happy events. Megan and Malcolm's July 1st-4th wedding was spectacular! The "wedding" took place on July 3rd, but the celebrating went on for days! Guests started arriving Thursday July 1st, settling in and enjoying the ambiance of rural, stately Walla Walla, Washington, where wheat fields, wineries and Whitman College are standout attractions. Thursday and Friday were days of preparation: getting flowers, making pies, pruning and trimming lawns, even deciding what to wear to the big event!



There were lots of children and young families.


A few handstands from the Lincoln High School and Carleton College contingent.






A good deal of hugging went on.


As well as lots and lots of eating, talking, nodding off, laughing, and more eating. Did I mention eating?

The pies were a big hit...as someone said, serving up their third piece, "No one ever goes back for wedding cake!"



Formal thanks from the bride and groom to all who attended...and warm thoughts for those who couldn't make it but were there in spirit.
