Family and friends gather outside the main entry to await the newly married bride and groom.
Finally, the anticipated moment arrives....
...presenting Mr. and Mrs. Jeffrey M. Cornwall.
Nieces and nephews are the first to congratulate the beautiful couple...
... followed closely by single siblings...
... then a round of hugs.
Everyone was dressed in their reception greys and slate blues...
The Cornwall nieces were in their glory in dresses handmade by their Grandma C.
The Cornwall nephews were studded out in their grey slacks (purchased in bulk on a recent trip to Boston) and special order bow ties.
It wouldn't be a Washington wedding without the friendly Whipples.
The Tirrell family were all there. (The Cornwall's were all there too - minus one Brazilian missionary. Sorry, that this Cornwall picture taker did not hand off the camera to a Tirrell during the Cornwall group shot. "Official" group photos may be forthcoming.)
The 'impossible' group nephews and nieces shot.
Grandma C. loved being with all her babies at the temple.
The Cornwall sibs add a new sister-in-law...
... happy for their brother who is no longer "a menace to society".
In typical Washington style there were on and off drizzles through-out the day so the valiant groom stepped up to protect the gorgeous bride's gorgeous dress from dragging on the soggy ground.
In between shots the rest of the group sheltered under the canopies of the lush bordering trees.
Perfect day for a perfect couple!!
