It’s the perfect day to post this Fairmont Palliser hotel sneak peek.  After 25 years of marriage, Linda and Jerry renewed their wedding vows in front of their four sons, their family and their friends.  The ceremony took place at St. Stephen Ukrainian Catholic Church and was filled with Ukrainian traditions.

  

Their original myrtle wedding crowns were preserved and displayed on the altar at St. Stephen.

The happy family after the renewal ceremony.

Guests made their way to the beautiful Alberta Room at the Palliser Hotel for more merriment.  Friends of the couple had guests in stitches with songs, speeches and dancing.  One thing is for sure,  this family is loved.

One of the highlights of the evening were the Suzirya Ukrainian Dance Theatre who performed for the wedding guests.  See yesterday’s blog post for more on these incredible dancers.

Not to be outdone, Linda and Jerry’s guests demonstrated their own moves thanks to Wild Bill’s DJ services.

  

Pop back in the coming weeks when I’ll feature more images from this Silver Anniversary celebration.  Congratulations to Linda and Jerry on 25 successful years of marriage.  It was so special to be a part of your day.
