Eric & Lisa, The Belfry Inn & Bistro, Sandwich, MA



A Happy 4th of July, complete with ice tea and lemonade for guests, American flags flying in perfect sunny weather, a rich red satin sash to complete Lisa's white elegant wedding dress, and a garden party atmosphere at the Belfry Inn in Sandwich, MA.

It doesn't get much better than this - friends and family gathered in the back victorian style garden to witness the custom vows of Lisa and Eric. Everyone was so happy for the beautiful day and this special couple. The birds were chirping with excitement, and a bumble bee or two were hovering in the sweet shrubs on the garden borders. A picturesque, private site, Lisa and Eric were all smiles as I delivered their service.

As with nearly all weddings, this was quite a family affair. But, for Lisa and Eric, it was truly a unique family connection; they met when Eric first was introduced to Lisa by his brother, who had married Lisa's sister! "Thanksgiving is very fun!" Eric said with a twinkle in his eye. Two brothers fall in love with and marry two sisters. Now this family is certainly extra special and gives me pause to reflect on the miracle of life and how we're all interconnected, sometimes in subtle ways, and at other times in ways that are simply magical!

Congratulations to Eric and Lisa! May your lives together be filled with love, laughter, and all of the goodness that life has to offer! I feel so happy to have been a special part of your day filled with flags, fun, friends and family.
