It started when Adam came to work at GI Joes, a sporting goods store in the area. Coy glances, flirtatious giggles, polite hellos. It didn’t last long though because Mary Ann accepted a job somewhere else, and Adam deployed as a real “GI JOE” with the US Army. As it goes in most fairy tales though, fate could not be thwarted and they were brought back into contact. This time there was no denying their attraction.
They were wed this past September 3, 2010 at the historic Benson Hotel in Downtown Portland Oregon in an elegant and traditionally beautiful ceremony and celebrated into the night surrounded by family and close friends. The bride was radient with her hair pulled back and smoothed into perfectly round pin curls in the back, secured by jeweled hairpins. The groom was dashing in his tuxedo with silvery blue details. The Benson’s Cambridge room was gracefully refined in all white linens with black sashes. It was an extraordinary day for two extraordinary people. Congratulations to the bride and groom and best wishes for a marriage as loving and warm as the wedding.
