Wow Ryan, how incredibly special!! Was that by chance Laguna Beach? I got married there 8 years ago, fat and in a white blouse and jeans. I remember even stopping on the way ONE more time to find something else special to wear, I was so disgusted with myself, but at 220 nothing looked good. What should have been so special, was marred by my self loathing! We were going to do it in Hawaii, but I would not do it there without my dress and me feeling beautiful, so I had asked my hubby if we could renew ours someday if I got thin again. So,  I will be doing a renewal sometime after I get to goal.  But,  I am quite sure that I will have to plan it!! Lol.

Your wife is stunning, you are one hot dude and your children are so beautiful.

I can only imagine how happy you all were,

You are an inspiration, and quite a man to plan that for your wife. One very beautiful family,

Congratulations !!!! I hope to meet you all some day when I'm down south at an OH group meet up!! Thanks  for sharing, beautiful photos!!

Hi Christina, 

Thank you very much!

It actually was in Laguna Beach. The ceremony was at Shaws Cove which is an incredible little cove about 2 miles north of Picnic Beach and the reception was at Las Brisas. Such an amazing location and everything turned out great. I had originally planned to do our renewal in Hawaii however some of the people that I wanted to be there could not make it so I figured it was better for everyone to do it local and it all worked out :)

I attend several of the So Cal group meet ups so maybe I'll meet you at one of them... Take care!

Congrats Ryan,

I salute you brother. I'm with you there on how good it feels to keep and fulfill a promise. I hope I can do the same myself with my wife someday. Like the my weight loss journey, we've got a ways to go. But I'll keep walking. B-E-A-U-tiful pics btw!
