I married Chad and Kim about 45 minutes ago out on golf course. We had a good rain this morning and it’s been threatening rain all day but the weather cooperated and the ceremony went very well. This is a fun loving couple and the ceremony was a lot of fun for everyone. I concluded…

Courtney and Aaron were married on the Bloomingdale Golf Course in a very fun ceremony. One of the bride’s maids was very emotional and that in turn seemed to have an impact on several members of the audience. The temperature was hot and we were right in the sun but there was a nice breeze…
