A friend of the family through our church has been serving in the military and was married some time back. However, because of their separate locations they decided to opt for a proxy marriage, so they weren't able to have a traditional service and ceremony. His mother wanted something memorable for the two of them as a belated wedding gift, so she commissioned this wedding picture done in watercolor. Finished just in time, too, since he arrives back in the States tonight for a brief break. I know his mother has been looking forward very much to this, especially to meet her new daughter-in-law and two (as well as her first) grandchildren.
She requested Irish scenery, thus the landscape in the background, beyond the arch. The scanner included most of the artwork, but cropped a portion off. You can note a very small part of the clovers in the bottom right corner.
