Berta, Diemut's sister from Indiana, gave us a wonderful gift by joining us for the wedding preparation.
Those party tables are calling for flowers, candies, and lots of people to fill them up!
Great photo of Desta and Maaizi as they anticipate a spirited wedding rehearsal ceremony.
Desta is glad we are so close to the actual wedding celebration. She's been sharing her mom, dad and big sis with us for quite a few weeks now.
This about sums it up. Anyone who knows how much we hope Prop 8 fails, fails, fails, fails knows that Hope is the word of this election season
Before we dolled everything up, we had to get things in some sort of order.
Joaquin is ready to get the show on the road.
Desta thought her mom needed just a little help getting us to line up and prepare for the practice wedding processional-- so she even showed us the way!
Zee, Wedding Officiant from Heaven, is checking over the program and waiting patiently for everyone to heed's Desta's directive to get ready to begin.
Zee, wedding officiant who makes all things wedding clear, shares some last minute updates with the wedding party.
Marilyn goes through key aspects of the Sage-ing ceremony with Maggie and Pat.
The materials for the Sage-ing ceremony have been assembled and explained.
The sidewalk from 4537 Alamo Drive to 4552 Toledo Drive where the actual wedding ceremony will be taking place was appropriately described by Lori and others as, "The Parade Route."
Maaiza knows that she really needs to be connected to that basket that is going to hold those beautiful rose petals. So, why not have a little fun and make a new hat out of it?
Marilyn and Pat share a moment together marveling at the fun of it all.
Diemut and Berta enjoy a bit of fun while working hard to make the most gorgeous altar ever!
Weaving those additional plants into the arch's greenery is no small task. Diemut has her hands full.
