OZARK MOUNTAIN WEDDINGS
ABOUT US & A FEW WEDDING SNAPSHOTS
PHOTOGRAPHER MARY R. MORRIS
Reverends Shannan & Mary Morris
Shannan and Mary met and were married in New Orleans, LA in 1993. They moved to
North Arkansas in 1998. Shannan received the call to the ministry in 2000 and in July
of 2004, became an Ordained Minister. He is an accomplished musician on the piano
and the guitar. He began his musical career as a singer of Southern Gospel Music. He is
also well known in the South for his paintings of New Orleans Jazz Art.
Mary attended college and Bible College in New Orleans. After Bible College, she
served in the Ministry in a small local community church and is herself a licensed
Minister. Since moving to Arkansas, she has continued in the ministry. Since retiring,
Mary now has the time to pursue her life long interest in Photography.
Many of the small churches in our area have no one to help them with their music,
often there is no piano player or song leader. We believe that when God called us
to the ministry, it was to help fill this void in our small churches.
Our ministry is totally supported by our wedding service. The wedding service came
about quite by accident. People began to ask if Shannan would perform their wedding
ceremony. Many people want to be married by a minister, but they may not belong to
a church or do not know a minister who will marry them.
There are many beautiful locations for weddings in Arkansas and Missouri. We are
licensed to perform weddings in both states. There is no waiting period in Arkansas
and Missouri. We feel that it is a special privilege to marry a couple as they are allowing
us to share in a very special moment in their lives.
We also have available our Wedding Chapel which is located 20 miles south of Harrison,
AR. Often people do not have the financial resources to rent a large hall or a church and
their home or apartment may not be large enough for a wedding and the guest they wish
to invite. Since we own this building, we thought it would make a great place for people
to hold their weddings and receptions. After all "Your Wedding Day" should be filled with
Joy, Beauty, and should be Stress-Free. You can have a beautiful wedding without it
being expensive.
Please take a moment and look at some of the photos of our lives and a few of the
weddings we have performed. All wedding photos are use with the permission of the
Bride and Groom.
Please view the Photographer's Page to see samples of Mary's photography and more wedding photos.

There is more to the ministry than
