Wedding Celebration

Beautiful wedding on Friday. Had a great time, met some wonderful people and celebrated this couple, obviously so much in love. Both in school, both love the same activities. It was a different, new age wedding complete with female minister, an egalitarian couple, they promised to speak kindly to each other in their vows. Loved that part. Also very different was the co-mingling of the waters from their geographically significant locations during the ceremony. Both the bride and the groom are never seen without a water bottle. Cape May, NJ, Colorado, and Grammy's house water went into the same bowl, signifying the couple's spiritual unity. It was appropriate as it poured rain the entire day and evening. It was held on a beautiful estate and would have been lovely in the garden. The mansion was just gorgeous with flowers and candles everywhere. The couple will honeymoon in Thailand at Christmas during semester break. They both love to dance, especially the bride! It was very difficult to get a photo of her as she didnt stop moving during the entire reception. It was a magificent evening. There were so many individual and personal touches that make every wedding so memorable. I was honored to be a witness to this unforgettable event.
