The Ceremony. We were so lucky to find this ceremony spot - very Oregon. One of our best friends was our officiant, and he ended up crying throughout the whole ceremony. He was embarrassed, but we loved it and he got a standing ovation at the reception!

We had parasols for the guests at the ceremony, and played with them during pictures...

This picture was taken during the "Cotillon" -- Ivan's family is from Argentina and they suggested we do this -- basically we busted out hats, masks, noisemakers, and special music to get the party going when it was getting late. It was a great part of the reception!
