Wedding Bells are ringin'

Today's the day.

Richard Bernard will be getting hitched (officially) to Sandra Marie in the Owen Rose Garden under the cherry tree on the banks of the Willamette River at 4 PM PDT.

It will be a small wedding with Sandy's folks are here from Chicago; her sister from Washington state; and her Aunt from Florida. Rick's sister Jessica and Grandmother are here from New Jersey; his Aunt Lucille, Uncle Doug, Cousin Laura, and Cousin Adam (who's stepped in as Best Man) all come up from the San Francisco area; and Cousin Brian and his girlfriend Vicky (who have been on a wedding tour--Great Britain last weekend, New York City yesterday(!) are also here--I think--from Chicago. Then there are friends from New Jersey, Washington, right here in Oregon and other various and sundry points around the country. For only 28 people or so, the distribution is quite amazing.

It's a gorgeous day for an outdoor ceremony. Nothing but blue skies and very light breezes are in the forecast.

More much later tonight or tomorrow morning.
