Wedding Party
Nelson
Father of the Bride
I'll always be your little girl ! I love you so much. You're an amazing man, and most importantly DAD. Dad you are my superman. . . You have spoiled me, taken care of me, and loved me greatly. I know you promised Mom when she was pregnant that if I was a girl you'd do everything. Sure enough I was a girl, and you were a man of your word. You completed your vow, and even though I'm all grown up I know you'll still be there for me no matter what. You've left some pretty big shoes for Matt to fill. I love you always DAD ! - Fran

Mother, you have raised me to be the women I am today. I thank you for not only being my mother, but also my friend. I admire you in every way.
