Two Years Ago We Sent Out This Postcard
4 Comments Published by Gail January 17th, 2007 in Engagement/Wedding, House of Fielding, WidowhoodIt was a “heads up” wedding announcement to our friends and family. David and I designed it together, while I was in Vancouver packing up my apartment and he was in Pennsylvania, waiting for me to come home to him.
Except for the picture of the Tri-Pacer (I think one of David’s cadets took that one), [...]

House of Fielding
Scranton, Pennsylvania

October 1, 2006
I made this videoclip to mark what would’ve been our first anniversary. A smaller, slightly different version can be found here on Blip.TV.
Music: “Fly Me to the Moon” - Frank Sinatra
Track #13 on David’s memorial CD. (My goal [...]
Until Holly pointed it out, I hadn’t realised that I hadn’t yet followed through with my plan to take a photo of all three rings together. Before I went to Europe in March, I was thinking of taking photos of the three rings where David visited in 2001: London and Soerendonk (NL). The travel pace [...]
By request from Francesca (I think Rachael and Laura put in requests, too, at some point), I’m posting some pictures of my wedding dress, which is now packed away.
The full set of dress photos is here. I had the veil made because I didn’t like anything in the shops, and it ended up being much [...]
I believe this is the first photo from our wedding — with people in it — that I’ve ever posted here. Melissa was fascinated with my outfit — the lighting obscures her hand, but she’s peering at it through the opaqueness of the veil. Her grandmother took one of the gift ribbons and put it [...]
The E-Mail
5 Comments Published by Gail January 13th, 2006 in David's Writing, Engagement/Wedding, faveAt the memorial, when I spoke about how David and I met, I mentioned that David wrote an e-mail to my boss at the time, asking if he would allow thanking him for allowing me to work out of Pennsylvania. [Edit: I realised by this e-mail it was approved; this was essentially the follow-up note.]
From: [...]
The Wedding Cake Saga
0 Comments Published by Gail (blogspot) October 15th, 2005 in Engagement/Wedding, PhotographyThe cake was ivory and the calla lilies were orange (see Hendrik? I don’t hate orange!), but I shot this with film and with the room lighting couldn’t get the colours to come out properly… hence the sepia.
David never did see the cake (the ceremony was in the Lackawanna Room, the dinner in the Johnson Room), and I didn’t know what to do with it afterwards.
Bashful Flower Girl
2 Comments Published by Gail (blogspot) October 14th, 2005 in Engagement/Wedding, The MsMelissa, 6, at our wedding dinner at the Radisson - Lackawanna Station. (The ribbon in her hair is actually from the guest gift — she started out wearing a headband with tiny butterflies on it.)
Melissa behaved very well under the (rather stressful) circumstances. She was a flower girl in her Auntie Ally’s wedding in June of last year, so she’d been there, done that. Also, there were a lot more people at the Maine wedding, so in some ways this one was easier — and she had her Grandmommy and Gumpa all to herself. But seeing Uncle David in a wheelchair and obviously in medical distress must’ve made her a bit frightened. The last time she’d seen Uncle David, he and her daddy had a shared birthday party on May 30. He looked well.
Debauchery
4 Comments Published by Gail (blogspot) October 11th, 2005 in Engagement/Wedding, PhotographyObviously a set-up*.
However, it was the night before my wedding, and it was a hotel room.
Not my corset, though. More on this later.
Wedding Weekend
30 Comments Published by Gail (blogspot) October 3rd, 2005 in Engagement/Wedding, House of Fielding, Living with CancerI should be in bed, I know. But I felt compelled to write a little placeholder post for now. It’s been rather hectic around here, to say the least.
The good news: IT’S OFFICIAL! WE GOT MARRIED!
