Melissa, Chris, their kids and the bridal party went off and took photos. Melissa and Chris's parents came with the Newley wed couple so after they take a few family photo's they could make all the children so they could have a little rest. Melissa took a few photo's with all her girls, hiding under her dress, and crowding around her, hugging her. She also took a few photo's with Mason and Tristan the two boys in her life, that she may love more than her husband. Chris did the same with his three girls and his son's. The family took a few family photo's, beautiful images and funny photo's which they always love doing. Once their photos all done, Melissa and Chris and their bridal party took quite a few photo's Melissa and her bridesmaids on their Owen, as well as Chris and his buddies. Finally, they all took a few images altogether.
Next, Chris and Melissa finally got to take photos by themselves. They made sure that they got a few beautiful images that were cute and lovely. And then there were a few other photo's where they could do some sexy pictures, which it would only be for them to see. They whispered into each other's ears, sexual and seductively. They are smiling at each other, going to each other compliments. Once they finished the photo, Melissa and Chris took their time walking back to the reception area, enjoying each other company. "Are you happy?" Chris asked Melissa as they swung their hands back and forth. "Very" she replied, smiling. "Umm. Come here" Chris started pulling his wife into a passionate kiss. "Umm, I can't wait for more. I mean I got some good previews while we were doing the photo's," Melissa said with a cheeky smile. "Umm, I plan to do more on our honeymoon." He said cheekily. Making Melissa smile "Please no more kids six is enough," Melissa said "Umm no promises," he said, making Melissa laugh. They continue to walk and meet the six kids outside the reception area.
"Mumma, daddy" Three little voice came from the distance along with three little people running, falling over a couple of times making the newlywed couple chuckled. As they ran closer, Chris and Melissa got down to the floor so they could greet their little monsters, along with their three oldest girls, who were walking behind them at a steady pace. Chris picked up Mason and Charlie while Melissa picked up Tristan who always seems to go for her more than Chris. "Hi, girls," Chris says as they both stand up with Mason, Charlie and Tristan in their arms. "Hey mum, hey dad," the girls say all at once. They all have a gentle family hug before walking over to the bridal party, are waiting to step in for the reception.
