Saturday On Main Street

 
Saturday afternoon, I went into our little town to do some shopping on Main Street.

As I rounded the corner from the side street where I’d parked, I saw something that brought an immediate smile to my face.  I was glad that I had my camera.

Their photographer was walking along in front of them, taking pictures. I managed to crop him out of my photo.

What is it about seeing a bride and groom that automatically makes us smile?

  1. Hope the newlyweds have a long and happy life together. You never know what you’re going to see when you ‘go to town’!

  2. I’m with you; we were out with friends Saturday afternoon when a wedding party stopped in to pub. We all smiled 🙂 MJ

  3. Ahh, the hopes and promises of the newly wed! I think we are all drawn to the innocence of unspoiled love. Let’s all send them our best wishes for the happiest life!

  4. I love to see a wedding when I go into town. Everybody is all dressed up and looking happy.

  5. That just paints a lovely picture of small town America. I love it!

  6. Weddings are usually very happy occasions with smilies all around….you can’t help but feel happy when you see “beginnings”…..nice photo too Dianna!

  7. Besides the “hope factor”, I smile at brides and grooms because they just look so royal. They are dressed and polished and all styled to look their best. Imagine a place where we all look our very best every single day — where we all look like brides and grooms with sweet smiles on our faces. I think that will be Heaven.

  8. So neat.

  9. You are always finding such wonderful surprises all around you!

  16. I suppose it’s because of the hope of a new beginning.
