Almost the complete, beautiful, most incredibly magical wedding party ever! A couple members of the wedding party were busy greeting guests, handling various arrangements and are not pictured here
If you didn't get a copy of the wedding program, the wedding vows, the wedding ballad and all things wedding-- and would like one: Let us know.
Diemut Heller Jamie Ethridge, Gloria Casillas and others insured that we had the most delectable desserts ever!
Our wedding cake was created and made unique by our dear friend Diemut Heller. If you look close you can see the special panther and unicorn figurines that grace the top layer.
We had the most amazingly creative thinkers and doers working with us for this wedding celebration. We had an idea that we wanted to integrate attention to formal politics into our wedding. Idea: Zee Davis- use Obama tee-shirts in wedding bouquets somehow. Creator; Diemut Heller and Miko Heller. Special touch: some of the flowers from Carl and Jimmy's wedding integrated into our wedding bouquets along wtih our own items. Outcome! The most gorgeous wedding bouquets imaginable.
Videographers Andy and Bonnie were hard at work throughout the festivities, but we truly hope they took some time out to have some fun. Special thanks to Bonnie for pitching in to help out in so many different areas, she quickly became indispensable.

We have shown our PRIDE so many times in the care and company of Tonya, Kris and family, we couldn't imagine having this special celebration without them. So, we jumped with joy when they cleared their activist schedules to be with us.
Pat and Maggie with our Chery-Davis family. Special thanks to the entire family for all things wedding, all the laughter and the lifting of care and concern about various aspects of wedding planning and execution. We are truly honored that we all owned this celebration-together.
We are family- from as far away as Washington State to as close as next door and all the family and friends in between, beyond and around. As Chris Erickson is fond of saying, "This is what America looks like!"
Our friends and neighbors Lori and KiKi Saunders have a phenomenal yard that has these beautiful motivational rocks sprinkled throughout. Since we have our own version of inspirational rocks as well, it is only fitting that one of the rocks we have in common- the "Hope" rock is showcased here.
Greeters Claudia Satriano and Nancy Schillings were awesome.
