There was no church, hardly any formal flower arrangements, no aisle, no pews and no alter. The beauty of the sun rising over the calm water replaced the stained glass, the sea gulls proâ€" vided the background music, and a winding dirt path from the road to the water served as an aisle. Only the minisâ€" ter‘s back was to the water. Guests, as well as the bride and groom, stood facing the lake, watching the sun make its way into the sky as the final vows were spoken. By the time the minister was finished, when Rose Ting and Warren Boyd were pronounced man and wife, the sun was over the horizon and the day had begun. At 5:30 in the morning on Sunday, before most people in Oakville, or anywhere as a matter of fact, were even out of bed, this sunrise wedding at Lakeside Park was well underway. Guests were arriving from as far away as London, Ontario, the bride‘s hair was getting the finishing touches, and the classical guitarist was tuning up. The groom, arriving fifteen minutes before the bride, set up a card table and two chairs which would serve as the table on which to sign the register.
