Sharon and Stephan's Wedding Cake At Magianno's

Operation Marry Me Military by Michael A Anderson

After Operation Marry Me Military, Michael generously gave me some beautiful pictures of the wedding.  I had so many to select from but narrowed it down to these 3 and made this collage. I  included the invitation by Susan, owner of Sweetest Beginnings.  My favorite picture is the cake with the flag behind it.  A picture like that just happens and says it all.

One big disclaimer, my picture of the pictures is not as good as Michael's pictures.  But I hope you get the idea and can see his work through mine.  It is obvious why Michael takes pictures and I make wedding cakes.

Thank You So Much Michael for your generosity and pictures but also for being a part of Operation Marry Me Military 2012.
