Stefan and Lindsay, their family and friends enjoyed a perfect Cape Cod wedding under the
tent of the prestigious, private club at the Willowbend Country Club in Mashpee, Massachusetts.
The celebratory peal of the bagpiper entertained the guests as they assembled, its musician playing from amidst the flowers of the meadow. And as an encore, the live band of "Pulse of Boston" accompanied the bride and her dad for the processional. All the while, I could see Lindsay and her dad in the distance, whispering and smiling as they walked, as two who shared a special, delightful secret that only dads and their daughters can hold. I imagined for a moment his whispering in her ear that she will always be his little girl, and that he wished her happiness in her new life with Stefan. One will never know but they, however he looked so honored to be giving her away on her special wedding day.
There were special readings from family and friends and wedding vows and rings exchanged with heartfelt spoken sentiments. The big moment came when I announced Stefan and Lindsay to be "husband and wife". Amongst loud applause from their guests, Stefan and Lindsay recessed down the aisle whereupon Stefan helped Lindsay with gentlemanly care into their special coach, a golf cart, as if it were a knight's chariot.
Waves and well wishes were expressed as Stefan drove his lovely bride up the hill. The bagpiper was piping, the relatives and friends were clapping, and the trees swung softly in the light breeze.
Congratulations to Stefan and Lindsay! Your lovely, gracious personalities are such that you suit one another to a tee. I wish you fair days and smiles, and happy memories for a lifetime shared together!
