Releasing Doves at a Wedding....or maybe an Eagle?

Well, now that I got your attention with the title.  Yes, there was actually a release of an eagle by the bride and groom.  And it was very cool, not the norm of course, but I was lucky enough to see this event, and how memorable for the Bride and Groom!

I hope I got most of the story right... A couple of weeks before their wedding date, the Bride had found an injured eagle in Crowsnest Pass area, and an organization took it in that helps injured birds return back to the wild (I'm sorry, I will update the name of the organization once I find it out).  Then some of the relatives on the bride's side had decided to let the release of the eagle be a surprise on her wedding day.  So they told her it was already released, and that she had missed it. So, obviously she was upset, and then of course had no idea that he would be arriving the day of her wedding.  So, right after the ceremony and after the signing, the eagle was brought out and posed with the bride and groom before he was released back into the wild. So, a little shocked they both were, along with the majority who attended the ceremony.  And what an experience that was for the both of them.  It was a beautiful outdoor wedding, a gorgeous bridal party, fabulous colors, a sexy limo driver (my husband ;) and of course the release of a beautiful bird. 

Thanks so much, Dory and Becky, for allowing me to take part in your day together.  Congratulations to the both of you and best wishes on your new life together. Enjoy the sneek peek!
