"Wow!" said Miklos, pointing to Carolyn.

I was holding Miklos and the ring pillow waiting for his cue while we watched the bridal party arrive at the arch. The girls looked breathtaking as they filed in, but when Carolyn arrived at her spot it was hard to see anyone else. The angle of the sun was absolutely perfect. It caught her full in the face and it looked like she had her own personal sun spotlight about three feet wide perfectly centered on her face. And she was glowing so it also looked like she was radiating a pure golden light. Like the Virgin Sun Queen suddenly incarnate. I forgot to breathe. But then Miklos pointed so I turned my gaze to him, and we saw our awe and wonder and joy mirrored on each other's face. We realized we felt exactly the same way. You can't plan perfection of that magnitude. I don't know if the pictures will capture it, maybe we were just in exactly the right spot. It was the most beautiful sight I've ever seen.

The wedding was, of course, a full-length feature production of the Courts of Chaos show. I'd intended to use this sentence as a cut line for taking it from the top, but the dogs do not permit.
