The reception was held at a unique venue--the National Museum of Nuclear Science and History in Albuquerque..............
Which just opened this month in its new location.............

warheads.............


Dwight enters to find a lovely setting of white tables, chairs and appetizer stations.........

We met our first friendly face--our old friend Albert....


Display of some artifacts from the early years of nuclear invention............


Diana points to something unknown and probably radioactive............

Dwight poses before a display of the benefits of nuclear medicine...........

A 1940s military limo that brought important scientists to work on the Manhattan Project as well as..................
Plutonium!.................

Little Boy...............


Fat man...........................


Megan displays her wedding boots--staying true to their blue collar roots, Keegan also wore brand new work boots with his tux................
Great minds.................................................

The best man makes people laugh...............


Megan and Keegan are really enjoying it....................................

Couldn't take pictures of the Grand Marcha, because we were in it, but the guests wove through the exhibits of the museum in a great dancing line................

The mother of the groom is a tiny lady, so she stood on a chair to make her toast--note the steadying hand on the chair in case there has been a bit too much champagne imbibed in the course of all these toasts........................
"Hear! Hear!"...........................................
First dance as man and wife...............
A fabulous cake strewn with rose petals and with lights between the layers..............
A rather Gothic bride and groom atop the cake.................

The aftermath of the cake sharing. This was a very mutual cake smashing--Megan said: "I don't care what the cake looks like just so long as I can smash it in his face!"...........................

She got her wish..........................

But they love each other just as much after their fun...................

Oh! How they danced on the night they were wed..................

And had FUN too................


And a good time was had by all! Best wishes to the happy couple!
