A quilted wedding

Indulge me for a bit. This is what happens when a quilter is asked to decorate for a wedding.

Yesterday was my cousin's C's wedding to M. Here they are after the ceremony wrapped up in the quilt we made them. They hadn't seen it before, and they loved it. Here's a scene from the set-up for the ceremony. the candle and signing table, decorated with antique linens and a square made from quilt scraps.
The quilt and the lecturn. I made this table or dresser runner out of leftover batik strips and attached it to the lecturn. a closer view.
The whole stage. You can just barely see the grand piano behind the quilt, which is great, since it wasn't being used, so we thought we'd get the focus away from it.

Brenda - thanks for sharing these pictures with the online world. You did such a great job of creating a beautiful space on stage for our wedding ceremony. We are thrilled with the quilt and the extra pieces you put together for the unity candle and lecture. Thanks for caring for us and doing such a great job on the decorations!
