Couple before Wedding

Image

A high point of the weekend was the marriage on Sunday of Robert Leslie and Barbara Swenson of the band Northern Comfort. The bride wore flowers in her hair and an ankle-length white cotton dress with embroidery around the neck and hemline. The bride is barefoot, and is holding a bouquet. She has her hand around the neck of her fiancé, who is wearing a purple tank top with a yellow flower. They are on stage before the Northern Comfort set.
