A very happy 40th anniversary to Beth and Bud!
We have had the great pleasure of celebrating 4 weddings with Beth and Bud and their family! It all started when their daughter Emily married Mark. Emily and Mark chose to get married at the Sonoma Mission, where her parents had wed. And amongst their portraits, they wanted their own version of this image from Beth and Bud’s wedding. Last year at Lauren and Steve‘s wedding, we discovered that Beth and Bud shared an anniversary with the newlyweds. And when Emily told us that her mom was an avid reader of our blog, we couldn’t wait to celebrate her nuptials as well. So 40 years ago, plus a day (I was out of the studio yesterday) these two fabulous people tied the knot. I am certain it was a beautiful event, filled with warmth, love and joy. We are so happy for you, Beth and Bud, and hope your ruby anniversary was amazing.
So fun! Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad!
Dearest Jo and David,
What a surprise and honor!! Did you realize that I am one of your biggest fans, and only to discover there is one of Bud and myself!!!! You guys continue to remind me what loving and thoughtful individuals you are-and how it couldn’t help but show in your photography. It was great to see you, David, on the July 4th weekend. We’d like to do it again with Jo! Let us know when you’ll be out West again.
Warmest regards,
Beth and Bud
P.S. Somehow you got one of the most embarassing pictures from our wedding album, re-created it with Mark and Emily, and then published it!! It’s a good thing that we looked so good back then!! The time has gone by so quickly….time flies when you’re having fun.
Thank you again for beautiful tribute.
Beth, We feel so lucky to know you and your family. Thank you for welcoming us at your family events. And I definitely hope I will be able to join you for the next gathering.
By the way, I LOVE this photo. It makes me smile in a big way. You and Bud definitely looked great, but that’s no different than now; you still look great. I just love that you have such big smiles on your faces. I can feel the marriage giddiness. Joyful!
We will look forward to celebrating many more years to come with you and Bud and the whole family.
All the best,
Jo and Dave
