Click image for full sized photo Neil Hutchinson is well know for his good works and efforts on behalf of kiting going back virtually to the start of the sport. Terri, his now wife has been with him, supporting his activities and kiting herself since the early days as well. http://www.fksa.org/albums/album267/N2.jpg Neil and four other kiters take off for a world record kiting run to Havana, Cuba from Key West in 2001. ... and hundreds more similar images and events. Just to get a small sampling of some of what Neil has done over the last 14 or so years in kiting, checkout the link: Neil Hutchinson on fksa.org He has done much more nationalwide over the years, even internationally. So, when Neil and Terri decided to tie the knot, I went up to see the union form and bring back some photos of the event. Neil and Terri expanded their interests into sky diving in recent years. The sky diving operation at Sky Dive Sebastian has become their second home, literally! The wedding was held at nearby Ferndale Lodge on Sunday, April 21, 2013. The reception followed at Sky Dive Sebastian. The happy couple's circle of friends includes both kiters and sky divers among many others. Neil organized Flying Under Canopies And Kites Competition at this venue in 2011. I went up and shot that as well photos of which will show up in this account. The weather didn't support sky diving the afternoon and evening of the wedding, so these images show what might have gone on in the sky. http://www.fksa.org/gallery3/var/res...g?m=1366745146 The ceremony was capably performed by good friend Evan Bell, notary and sky diver/kiter/pilot/??? http://www.fksa.org/albums/album593/...4997.sized.jpg Evan gearing up to jump http://www.fksa.org/gallery3/var/res...g?m=1366745293 Evan opened things up with a short delivery followed by the exchanging of vows created by Neil and Terri for this special day. There was no screwing around, this was a quick ceremony and I am glad I made it in time driving up from down south! http://www.fksa.org/gallery3/var/res...g?m=1366745293 http://www.fksa.org/albums/album191/0_G.jpg Tiki Beach in Ft.

It is to start about four hours after the wedding ceremony. http://www.fksa.org/gallery3/var/res...g?m=1366821598 Jesse and the crew keep the good times going pending the start of the reception. http://www.fksa.org/gallery3/var/res...g?m=1366821597 The weather isn't working for sky diving but is good for buggying. Hamish rigs up and goes to it on the taxi way of the strip. Family calls and I need to hit the road for the two hour trip back south. Hope it is a fun reception, as if there is any other kind with this crowd. Happiness to the new couple today and always! http://www.fksa.org/gallery3/var/alb...g?m=1366745288 . |
Thank You!!
Rick,
Can't thank you enough for this beautiful gift! The photos are priceless and timeless too. Thank you for taking the time to put this all together & sharing it with us! Much love, Terri. |
You are most welcome Terri! You folks have done so much over the years in kiting and now sky diving. I barely touched on all the happenings and photos out there. Enjoy your new life together!
Best regards to you both! Rick Quote:
