Rick and Cori’s Wedding 12-17-2010

Wedding are special occasions and my son Rick’s was no exception. Rick Thompson and Cori Carter have been together for three or four years and I guess it was inevitable. Still parents are always surprised the first time one of our children arrive at marriage. I guess it is time to stop calling them kids and realize they are grown up.

Rick will graduate the University of Central Florida in the spring of 2011 and Cori graduated from the University of Florida with a nursing degree. They reside in Oviedo, Florida. Here are a few pictures from the special day. May providence guide them through the next decade and the rest of their lives.

The ceremony took place with some assistance from the weatherman on a spectacularly beautiful 75 degree Florida winter day. The location at the Chapel in the Garden in Port Orange, Florida was simply the best wedding setting in Florida.
