Patti, those are lovely photos. Phil does look very young. And you are both obviously happy in the photos.
I got married twice and both times in January. When Glen and I got married we went to the judge's chambers with two new friends from Santa Barbara; we had just moved there two months earlier. I don't think we have many (if any) photos. Our anniversary was Friday and it was forty four years.
Congratulations to both you, Tracy and Patti...even with the best person for one, lifetime commitments are impressive, and all the good memories are credits to both of you and your beloveds.
Thank you for sharing these. Brings back memories.
I won't bore everyone with a bunch, but some of the reason we have any pics of the reception is because other folks brought their cameras in 87. One of which was a Brownie.
The official wedding photographer, a cousin of Sandi's paid to do it, started drinking and did not stop. So, the church pics were fine as were the first hour or so of the reception. Then, the pics started shifting vertical. From around the second hour of the reception, all the pics were foreheads and ceilings. That soon shifted to where nobody was in frame at all. We got some amazing shots of ceiling tiles. lol

Wow. I knew you were young, but Phil looks like a baby! Nice pictures. My parents also got married in January (the 9th).
Thinking of you roday. There are not that many marriages where both partners are the lucky one.
Phil looks fourteen (he was 22).
I was the lucky one. He was a saint.
Thanks for sharing these. One hopes all long marriages at least Tend to be happy, but reality can do what it will with hopes.

Happy anniversary, Tracy. I am just seeing this on Monday. Thanks, Todd. I was lucky.
