Kathleen and John say "I do!"

Mr. and Mrs. Parodi were married at The Siena Chapel on Saturday May 24, 2009, with a reception that followed at The Desmond. After their wedding, Kathleen and John traveled to Ireland to have their marriage blessed and for their honeymoon.

A little information about that fabulous bird cage veil: The top part of the headpiece was made with lace from Kathleen's mothers wedding dress, as well as flowers and netting from her parents cake topper and in the center, was a carved ivory bead from Kathleen's maternal great-grandmother's rosary. In Kathleen's words: "It was my something old and it was so very special to me as I am so proud of the strong wonderful women who have come before me."

Kathleen and John: "I wish you much happiness in your marriage. Thank you for having me be a part of your wedding day."

Many thanks to:

lol! the comment about finding the light is so funny. I was just doing that on my last engagement sitting and they were laughing at me too! although I was doing a very funny "hunting for light" walk.
