The Story of Us

Bev and Randy, both from Colorado, chose an Island wedding in Hawaii to say "I do". As they spent their honeymoon in Hawaii, they visited the beach, viewed the Islands from a helicopter and witnessed how much it can rain in Kauai. Returning home, a backyard reception was given to honor the newlyweds. With arches decorated in white Christmas lights, tulle bows sporting the pink and purple colors from the wedding and Enya's music drifting through the night air - the couple enjoyed time with their friends and family. And what would a wedding be without the gifts? Opening picture frames to freeze in time their Island Adventure, to palm tree ice cubes - they didn't go away empty handed. They were even serenaded with an acoustic version of Garth Brook's song, "Make You Feel My Love". Without a doubt, the perfect wedding for a couple who dated in 1983 a couple times, only to be reunited 14 years down the road - then united in marriage 4 years later.
