Another perfect day for a wedding, with children dancing on the lawn of the Chatham green where the Chatham Bandstand has hosted many a celebratory event, including the 4th of July and other favorite events. But today, it was for Joseph and Kristen to have their special wedding day with family and friends, and yes, admiring strangers, too! Though it isn't yet the 4th of July, the brilliant smiles of family and friends were accompanied by the violins playing on stage. And you might say it felt as happy there as any event I've participated in. It's such a special privilege for me to share in such a lovely couple's special wedding ceremony.
Passersby stopped and gazed in awe as Kristen alighted from the antique trolley with her father. Her simple, elegant grace was for all to see; Kristen's beautiful white gown draped softly over the stairs of the bandstand as she and Joseph said their custom wedding vows, her smile filling the park. Joseph and she exchanged adoring looks to one another as I read their service.
And as I introduced them for the first time as "husband and wife", and they processed down the aisle, one could see the glee in that special kiss they shared. "We're married!" it said, full of happiness, love, and promise for their future together.
Congratulations to Joseph and Kristen!
