We Went To The Lighthouse And Got Married!
It's official, I am Mrs. Cavitt! It all still feels very surreal and I suppose it will for some time. I can't imagine I'll ever get used to being called Shannon Cavitt - but - I like it. No, I LOVE it.
Everything about the evening was just beautiful. We could not have asked for a more stunning setting. Chad gets big time props for choosing that location at sunset, because it was truly gorgeous. The ceremony itself went well with the exception of one of the rings getting knotted to the pillow and me wondering out loud when the "you may kiss the bride" bit goes. I suppose these things happen when you don't rehearse or haven't done the whole marriage thing before, eh? Ha ha. All in all, it was very very special.
We did opt to do the sand ceremony (finished product to the left) and I am actually really glad. The finished product was beautiful and Chad's daughter Ashley read the ceremony piece so it made it a bit more memorable.
This photo displays not only the vase (which has our names and wedding date on it) but also the ring pillows (both Chad's daughter Haven and my little sister Loganne had one) as well as the matching glasses my mother bought for us :)
After the ceremony we went to the beach to take photos. Anyone who knows me, knows I get very uncomfortable posing for photos - so to be posing while thinking I looked just hideous, was a nightmare. Chad wanted to go down to the beach portion and take a few photos and once again, props, because these ones I actually kind of like.
And of course a kiss and the lighthouse in the back!
We had our wedding dinner at Patti's 1800 Settlement where we got a ton a photo ops, good food and great conversation. Then - our course - was our honeymoon night and we went to the Wildflower's Bed & Breakfast. It was so gorgeous and the room was flickering with candlelight.
The entire event seemed to go so fast but I have memories I'll hold dear forever and for always. I am married to the most gorgeous, caring, funny, intelligent, witty, talented and down-right sexiest man on the planet. I seriously have NO clue how I got so lucky but I will spend the rest of my life showing my gratitude, appreciation and love.
I Love You Chad. Forever & A Day.
Next? Saving money and starting paperwork. I need to be with him.
Until Next Time,
Shan
