Here Comes the Bride!

shari - 12-29-2011 at 06:51 AM

today is probably one of the most important days of my life...the day my angel is wed. Family and friends are gathered, the weather is superb, food is ready, beer is on ice...it's a go! I was up at 5 to get coffee and breakfast for the masses still snoring here this morning.

I truly wish all our Nomad amigos could be here with us today and know you are here in spirit.

We wish Adrian and Sirenita a lifetime of happiness and love.

Bajaboy - 12-29-2011 at 07:13 AM

It's going to be a great day! Congrats to all!

Diver - 12-29-2011 at 07:36 AM

Congratulations and best wishes to all of you for a great wedding day !!
Wish we could be there to celebrate.

zforbes - 12-29-2011 at 07:48 AM

The day will be memorable...so glad I can be here!

shari - 12-29-2011 at 07:57 AM

attention all shoppers....facials at the Beach House this morning!!!

ElCap - 12-29-2011 at 08:50 AM

Congats to Shari & Sirenita & Adrian and all their extended family and friends. Bahia Asuncion is probably the happiest place in Baja today, if not the world. Enjoy the fiesta.

BajaGringo - 12-29-2011 at 09:14 AM

Wish we could be there on this most important day Shari to share in this joyful occasion. Sending you and all your family our best wishes for a happy future for Sirenita and Adrian.

Ron & Cristina

Pompano - 12-29-2011 at 10:33 AM

I'm 0 for 3 with marriage.

IT IS NOT TOO LATE TO SAVE ADRIAN.

Warn Adrian NOW! ---one of the fundamental truths about marriage: the wife is in charge.


Marriage can ruin a man!
It has no guarantees. If that's what you're looking for, go live with a car battery.



Oh well, if you're forging ahead anyway....Many Years of Happiness to all 3 of you!..and you, too, Granny...


p.s. to end on a positive note: There's only one way to have a happy marriage .......

......and as soon as I learn what it is I'll get married again.

;)

Shari-----What a fun and happy day this is---------we will be thinking of you all as we sit here in the rain (if it ever actually arrives).

We will be awaiting the pics, that's for sure. :spingrin:

CONGRATULATIONS!

KASHEYDOG - 12-29-2011 at 11:05 AM

Congratulations to Serenita and Adrian on this new and exciting journey they will embark on today. May today be the happiest of their lives and may the future only get better and better each day. Congratulations to the parents as well. .......:yes:...:yes:...;)

BTW........... marriages DO work for some, although Pompano and I are not part of that select society, YET. But I did find my most successful times when each person tried to make the other feel special each day by doing something small to make the other feel loved..............
Please make sure you tell the happy couple that all in Nomad Land wish them the best

CONGRATULATIONS!

Our best hope for you!

djh - 12-29-2011 at 12:49 PM

Shing and I send our congratulations, love, and hope for as much happiness as we share every day of our lives together.

2 simple mantras that keep me happy and headed in the right direction... we offer as a wedding gift:

1. We live in love or we live in fear - always choose Love

2. The shortest path to happiness is gratitude - appreciating who and what our life life includes. the shortest path to misery is desire - always wanting something else we don't (or can't) have.

All the best!

bajadogs - 12-29-2011 at 02:22 PM

Hey guys, thanks a bunch for all of your well wishes and advice, I'm sure we'll need it at some point!! But for now we are enjoying this new step in our journey, no doubt hard times will come but as we have so far we will get through them together, as a family with everyone we know and love.
I'd like to thank everyone who could be here and also everyone who was here in spirit, we could feel the love!!!!


And...the key to a wedlock is.....*drum roll*.................."happy wife, happy life" :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

From the mouth of a very wise man who's name I will not say!! Good thing I grabbed myself a hubby who knows that rule!!

David K - 12-30-2011 at 08:58 AM

tiotomasbcs - 12-30-2011 at 01:54 PM

Felicidades, todos! What a beautiful day with lots of beautiful people. We know so much about Serena but is Adrian a BA boy? We had a wedding down here on the beach, also. Funny thing is that they were married in a heart shaped by bouganvilia flowers similar to yours! Good thing the weather improved for the Wedding. The Power of Love!:spingrin: Smiles Tio

Islandbuilder - 12-30-2011 at 03:37 PM

Sirenita, many congratulations on your marriage! What a wonderful looking party you guys had!

I wanted to tell you that I joined this board in large part due to your selfless care for Ron when he and Cristina were in the hospital. You, and others on this board, exemplified community.

Blessings on you and your family.:yes:

MikeYounghusband - 12-30-2011 at 04:16 PM

Best to all, wish I could be there. One great family.

Congratulations

I'm actually a little tearie eyed! Is that Nan officiating and Juan playing guitar? Wow, very heartwarming indeed!

Ken Cooke - 12-30-2011 at 07:50 PM

Congratulations!! I just saw the photos and wish my Wife and I were there.

shari - 12-30-2011 at 07:51 PM

thanks for your wonderful comments everyone and the photos Doug. It was truly a magical day...like summer...and the ocean was bracing but not cold as my amiga from England decided to celebrate with a swim!

I cried like a baby throughout the ceremony as Juan and Ramon accompanied quietly in the background and Nancy officiated the vows. The food was outstanding...the fresh seared yellowtail with pistachio pepper and spinach salad was awesome thanks to the crew from Ofelia's restaurant in Ensenada. Thanks to all our friends and family who came for the event....now onto the next party....tomorrow night at Galeria Bahia for the New Year's dinner/dance party....happy new year amigos!!!

congrat's

What a beautiful bride La Sirenita did make! What a wonderful celebration of Love You have shared with all of us! Blessings abound!!

Congratulations...

windgrrl - 1-1-2012 at 12:04 PM

Advice? Be sure your last words to each other before you part and before you sleep are "I love you."

What a wonderful celebration it must have been and a wonderful way to start the new year. May you be as rich in life as you are in love.

shari - 1-3-2012 at 03:21 PM

Whew...well, the wedding has come and gone and everyone left yesterday...only the laundry remains...hahaha!

It was kind of surreal...like a sweet dream...Sirena looked so beautiful, i cried like a bay throughout the ceremony. Thanks to all our friends and family who made this day so special...especially to nancy who really pulled it all together as only she can do. We had a pretty good Nomad turnout too!

Being the mother of the bride I wasnt supposed to be snapping photos, but I just couldnt help myself...so here are some of my pics. My sister in law photographed the wedding and her photos are fantastic.

Nappo - 1-3-2012 at 09:20 PM

Great Photos!!! The wedding dress is beautiful, I wondered about it when it arrived here in a small black plastic bag- Wow! - I'll email you about some other "stuff".
Juan playing guitar, Izaak in the sand, Adrian looking good - Sirenita beautiful- what a great day - or should I say a couple of days??!!
Best of all as usual! Of course us boys were there in spirit!
Amigo- Doug

Perfect!
