You read correctly…SIXTY years of marriage ~ wow right??!   Long story short, this family has a long time history of friendship with my father, which led me to photographing a Wedding for them a few years back ~ here they are!
(The first picture  is still one of my favorite pictures ~ I love when we get to photograph our pets in the Wedding pictures! And they’re expecting their second baby now too! ~ Congratulations you guys!)

Recently, the parents of that couple asked me to photograph their parents Anniversary party and I was really excited to see them all again!  The event took place at the Lakeshore Country Club out by Charlotte beach and what a beautiful day it was for this celebration.

There were a few little girls, and even a baby…and lots and lots of friends and family to wish them well.   I was glad we were able to get a group shot so they could look back and see all the smiling faces at their party.

Here’s the Anniversary couple!

Mingling with friends and family

There were 2 cakes, one for them, and one for baby Olivia’s christening.  The Anniversary cake topper used was their very topper from their Wedding cake 60 years ago!

Babies are so much sweeter when they’re not fussing   Pack and Plays are a life saver…Sleep tight angel

Brunch time…the food looked amazing and everyone said it was delicious; a wonderful variety too!

Sometimes, there’s nothing sweeter than a little girl eating watermelon…look how cute!

These two were so cute cutting their cake as everyone watched them celebrate a milestone in their lives.

Toasts were made, smiles were shared, and memories were captured.

Congratulations Bucher family!  Thank you for inviting me into your celebration again ~ you’re all SO incredibly lucky to have each other and for having this most incredible reason to celebrate.
