Sherry & Jay – New Albany Wedding

I had the wonderful opportunity to meet a couple last week who are truly in love.  Jay and Sherry met like any other couple these days, on the internet… I think it’s amazing how many people start their relationships after an online introduction.  I suppose it saves a lot of time spent with blind dates and all the other “old fashioned” ways we used to meet people.  Did  I really just type that? O.K., I must be getting old!  Regardless, fate has brought these two together into a new family.  Sherry with her two children and soon to be son-in-law, and Jay with his beautiful 7 year old daughter.  Together they have formed a wonderful new family.

 

Jay’s daughter brought up the rings to Damian King who officiated the wedding and Sherry’s children walked her up the walkway to meet Jay.  The wedding was held at a small green space in downtown New Albany and the rain was kind enough to break about 2 hours before the ceremony was expected to start.  We can all thank mother nature for that one.

 

The rings were exchanged and Damian announced Mr. & Mrs. O’Connell to the family followed by applause from not only the family but onlookers across the street.  As the photographer, I found myself taking just a few seconds to admire the awesomeness that Jay & Sherry just committed to.  It’s truly amazing.

Just a few days after their wedding and Sherry is busy closing on her home in Cincinnati and making arrangements to move to New Albany to convert Jay’s bachelor pad into their new home.  I wish them the best of luck in all of their journeys and hope to see them around town soon!   Help me to send warm wishes to them by commenting on this post, it’s here for them to read.
