Anthony and Jill's Wedding, The Ocean Edge Resort and Golf Club, Brewster, MA



Any bride would be ruffled by the severe rainfall of Tropical Storm Danny, but not Jill! She and Anthony arranged to have their wedding service at

the Pine Terrace Room nearby the pool at the Ocean Edge Resort in Brewster. This day was such that resort staff were shoveling water off of the walkways as if it were snow. Last minute plans were to have Jill make her grand entrance from the ballroom's kitchen, the closest entrance used to keep her white satin gown dry. As you can see from the photo above, Jill's smile reveals her exuberant spirit that would not be squelched by the torrential weather; this was her day and she was rolling with the new itinerary!

Happy to be inside, away from the elements, friends and families, musicians and photographers, caterers and servers all enjoyed the festivities and the electric feeling in the air; there was such excitement for this special couple! Jill's mom and dad walked her down the aisle where Anthony, their groomsmen and bridesmaids greeted the lovely bride; all were smiling, so filled with the joy for Jill and Anthony on their special wedding day.

My wife took photos of their ceremony from the back of the banquet room. She does not recall if the large floor plant nearby where she had stood was in the camera's viewfinder, so she was quite astounded by the light. This effect occurred in photos only when I announced to all in attendance that Anthony and Jill were officially "husband and wife". We may never know for sure, but we'd like to think that their marriage will be illuminated with a protective mantle of love.

Congratulations Anthony and Jill! To happy times ahead for you both!
