Congratulations Mr and Mrs Pierce!

After 10 years, 6 apartments, 4 states, 2 cross-country moves, Tom and Susan tied the knot this weekend on their anniversary weekend.

Oh and the robot themed cake!

The Pierces first dance….twirls and all.

And the happy couple enduring the freezing outdoor cold to take pictures on the 22nd floor terrace.

So there’s a funny story to these rings….Back when Susan and I both worked together, I was participating in a flickr-based photo group called Mission 24. An photographic assignment, or “mission”, based on a word would be emailed to you and within 24 hours you would have to post a newly snapped photograph. One such mission was “Infinite” and the idea of taking a picture of wedding rings came to mind and since I didn’t have any such rings, I had to borrow. I borrowed Susan’s sparkly diamond ring and Bert’s wedding ring to take this picture.

I had to black and white the photo since Bert’s ring was of a gold color and Susan’s was not…But I digress! Apparently, upon seeing the picture, Tom wasn’t as pleased with the photograph as Susan or I was. He was a little miffed that another man’s ring was associated with his fiance’s engagement ring. So as promised, once he got his ring, I had to take another picture.
