Welcome To Our ALASKAN WEDDING
As parents of ten children, this is not our first wedding, but it is the first one we have had up in the mountains at our remote cabin. Having a wedding off-grid has it's challenges but after months of planning and preparation we celebrated one of the most special days of our lives. We will never forget this wonderful experience, gathered together with our friends and family. We would like to extend an invitation to you to celebrate with us as well.
Peace to you from Alaska

That’s a smart young man. “As long as you love it, I love it.” No wiser words have ever been spoken between man and wife.
Such a beautiful wedding!! I love how everyone came together to do the decorating, help with all the odds and ends jobs, but mainly, seeing father and son building together to add even more special memories in the preparation and wedding. Such a beautiful family! I never get enough of seeing all the love, laughter, chores, and adventures you all do together. And it wouldn't be an Alaskan wedding if the weather didn't turn and do something, but standing in the rain while reciting your vows just proves the love and commitment they have (or they are proving they are true Alaskans LOL). God Bless you all and grant you all the love, joy, peace, happiness, and protection always.

Good morning Ione. It is so good to hear from you. Thank you for sharing our special day. I enjoyed the months leading up to this wedding, working with Dylan to prepare the place. We had hours of conversation and laughter. It made it all very memorable to us. Precious times to be sure
What a unique, beautiful, and special wedding. I have always heard that rain on your wedding day is a special blessing for good luck, the last tears of the bride, and a marriage that will last. Congratulations to a special family!
Beautiful ," a wet bride is a lucky bride " . Congratulations , have many many happy years and memories together .
Simply wonderful ceremony. Beautiful setting. Thanks for bringing us along.

What a simple and beautiful event. I wish the couple a happy marriage and successful start. Love from the USA, Montana. God bless you all.
What a beautiful wedding and like they say, it is good luck with rain on your wedding day. What a beautiful couple 💖.
Rustic. That's the way all weddings should be. And that's gotta be one of the cutest little Hobbit brides I've ever seen. Congrats!!!
Something about that foggy, rainy wedding added charm in my opinion. Nothing can stop true love and such a wedding day in Alaska proves it.
What a lovely ceremony! Wishing the couple all that is good in life! Cheers!
Congratulations to the happy couple. Gale, the transformation of the small cluttered rooms to that spacious hall is amazing. Your hours of work, culminating into not just a building but a work of artistry and craftsmanship. Wishing you and your bride another blessed week, gentle weather and restful evenings. Peace

This is my favorite passage for a wedding day. My best wishes to the bride & groom............Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

What a beautiful special wedding. So full of love and caring, not so much "stuff" (can't think of the word) I met the groom when he installed the dry wall in the cabin but wondered about Drox's Mom. She is gorgeous and Drox looks just like her. I wish you many happy years together. Love and Joy to you both.
Awh! JOY! Tears of Joy! Thank you, Jesus for your love and the privilege of loving others...well!

Finally you have a new video I love all your video
We missed you but knew that you were going to be super-busy on the wedding. It was really lovely and te choice of music for the video and picture sequence was perfect. Mai is a very beautiful bride and Dylan a handsome groom. Really, the pictures were so beautiful and they captured the happiness of the day. And the rain ;) It was a lovely thing you did to share that with us and it was very special and the comments reflect how privileged we were to peek in on the day. The 'workshop' was great and the bar added to the whole ambience. The lights and the flowers all added to the hygge! Well done on providing such a beautiful venue and for just seeing it all through. Blessings on the couple in abundance.
