Lee and Kenisha had wanted to elope but their families really wanted to see them get married and have a "real" wedding! So, they engaged the lovely All Saints Chapel in downtown Raleigh for their wedding Saturday morning November 14th. Despite having very busy work schedules (Kenisha is in nursing school and working part-time and Lee is a full time medical professional), they managed to make it all happen beautifully.
Kenisha's stepfather, Tommy, brings her down the aisle. Kenisha wanted to include both her stepfather and her father, Charles, in the wedding.
So, Tommy brought her down the aisle to the front row where her mother, Melissa, was standing. She kissed him good bye there and took the arm of her father who was waiting there. He walked her up to Lee who was waiting for her hand in marriage.
Lee is a tall man but Kenisha, in her heels, just about topped him. I felt like a midget although I had on 2" platform shoes to be taller than my normal 5'5"! Isn't Kenisha's wedding gown stunning? It was so flowing and soft. Jessica is our Maid of Honor holding both beautiful bouquets and Kevin, our best man, is holding the rings.
The morning light was streaming in and illuminating the chapel. I am standing to the side of the couple to give thank and pay tribute to their parents on Kenisha and Lee's behalf. After they said their vows to each other and exchanged rings, they lit the Unity Candle.
Now they are married! Does it look to you like Kenisha is in a hurry?!
From this angle, I don't look like such a midget. They were so happy that this day finally arrived and that the wedding was wonderful. What a great couple! Lee and Kenisha, you know I wish you all the best always!
Kelly Martin was our photographer. It was good to work with you again, Kelly! (Please note that these photos on this post were not taken by Kelly. They were taken with my point and shoot digital camera and that is why they are not of professional quality but good enough to give you an idea of what the wedding looked like.)
Andrew Martin was the Chapel representative and this time we BOTH brought candlelighters after last week's wedding where there were none! Andrew ran the sound for this wedding as the couple used pre-recorded music played through the house system. Good job, Andrew!
Kenisha's friend, Heather, acted as our director and did a fine job. Thanks, Heather!
