St. Lucia Floating-Wish Lantern Exit

Since some of their family members weren't able to attend the wedding, Anna and Jonathan acknowledged them in a special exit. "Jonathan and I and each of our family members who were present lit a sky lantern and watched it float toward heaven," Anna says. "We felt as if our family who weren't there in the flesh were smiling from above and sending us their blessings.”
