Jeffrey & Justine's Wedding, Willowbend Country Club, Mashpee, MA



Jeffrey & Justine show exuberance at my declaring them "husband and wife" for all of their family and loved ones to witness for the first time; I don't think I've seen a couple so expressive!

This was such a beautiful pair, with their "daughter", DJ, in a floral wreath around her neck, bestowing the rings to the best man, Ken, as part of their customized service. DJ did a wonderful job! Justine walked down the aisle with her dad, misty tears of joy in her eyes; there was that unique sacred space that occurred where time stands still while friends and family members stand in awe of Justine's dramatic beauty. The vows were said with such emotion of the love Jeffrey & Justine have for one another. During the service, when I asked Jeffrey if he took Justine to he his wife, "to have and to hold, from this day forth," Jeffrey confirmed with the most enthusiastic "Yes!" I'd heard in my years of performing wedding ceremonies. All in attendance laughed, including Justine, Jeffrey's commitment so adamantly clear! This was certainly a very lovely wedding, complete with the lush green view of the country club's gorgeous golf course, the singing birds, the soft cape cod breeze, and the love, humor and joy of friends and family.

May you both always experience the playfulness, the depth of your love together, and the closeness with friends and family that you showed on your wedding day.

Congratulations to Jeffrey & Justine. May your days ahead be filled with joy!
