Robert and Shovonne joined their two families on Sat., Sept. 29. Not only did the two of them look fantastic but their four children were all adorable - especially little 2-year old Royalty. The wedding took place at The Manor in Euclid. It was a lovely indoor setting with the ceremony set up in one room and the reception in an adjoining room. Shavonne made all the centerpieces herself and they were beautiful.

From this photo you can see the they were both very excited about finally tying the knot. They said their vows in front of about 80 people who were all very excited as well. I love to perform weddings for African-Americans. The guests do not hold back their excitement and join in with the ceremony which was the case this time. The best part for me was when I asked the guests to join me in prayer. I said the first line of the prayer and they repeated it after me. I was happily surprised and continued the rest of the prayer that way. Usually people just bow their heads and say Amen. I loved that these guests were so into the ceremony that they repeated each line after me.

Wishing this loving couple and their family much love and prosperity.
