Wedding Photos
We were married at Saint Paul’s Episcopal Church in Troy, New York. The Rev’d Michael Gorchov, Rector of Saint Paul’s, was the Officiant. The Very Rev’d Gary Kriss preached the sermon. Robert Shovah was the Minister of Ceremonies, Donald Ingram played the organ, F. Eugene Tobey was the Cantor, and Brenda Church, Susan Allen, and Florence and Karen Strang served the Mass. Jason’s aunt and godmother Carol Yarian and Amber’s uncle and godfather Etienne Fonteneau were the readers.
The bridge getting her veil on
The ladies take a ride to the church
Amber and her very proud grandmother
Richie waits for the ladies to arrive
Renee (finally) arrives at the church
Hanna provides some flowers to walk on
Dad escorts his daughter down the aisle...
And gives her away to her soon-to-be husband
The ring bearer waits to do his job
Do we really have to sit together?
