Preliminary wedding pictures.
Sort of in chronological order with captions.
Thanks to those who sent me email pictures already.
My lighting was disappointing.
Thank goodness for the real photographer, whose pictures we can't wait to see!

Next morning, the bus takes Mom and Dad and family to the wedding.
Bus arrives at hotel. Mom and Dad are the first we greeted.

From my front row seat, I could see Raf, and took this picture.
But no other pictures as I savored the ceremony without using my camera.
Thanks Sue for snapping this one.
