Shannon and Shafer are both early childhood special education teachers, so these little rays of sunshine walking down the aisle were especially meaningful to them as a couple. There were many personal touches throughout their ceremony, including a Celtic hand-fastening ritual, which utilized cloth from both Shannon and Shafer&#8217;s childhood blankets, plus a new cloth to carry them into the future together.<\/p>\n<p>Toasts were hilarious and had everybody howling with laughter and this energy carried over into dancing, which was a mixture of beautiful, wild, wacky and fun!<\/p>\n<p>Thank you again, Shannon and Shafer, for sharing such a gorgeous, heartfelt day with me. You two are fantastic people with amazing family and friends, and I&#8217;m honored to have captured the start of your life together. Congratulations!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/kristinepaulsenphotography.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/Missoula-Montana-Wedding-Photographer_01.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\"
