I recently performend a wedding in Jersey City just overlooking the Hudson for a fabulous couple. They were one of the nicest couples you could every meet and very gracious. They actually met on the intenet which I find more and more from my couples is the way many have met their future spouces. The weather was great, not a cloud in the sky, and the location was outside at the exact place where the groom proposed. It was a small intimate affair and was truly from the heart.
There wasn’t a bridal party, just two jr jr bridesmaids (about 8 – 10 years old) who were gorgeous – they had long blonde hair, blue eyes, and were so very cute. For kids of their ages, they stood the test of time, standing every so still during the entire ceremony.
Vesna and Gale, if you read this, I want to thank you for placing your trust in me and for being so very nice. It was an honor for me to officiate and I wish you nothing but good fortune and happiness in your life together.
By the way, Jersey City is a great place for ethnic restaurants as I’m learning from doing many ceremonies there. After the ceremony, my daughter (I sometimes bring her along as the photographer when she’s not at college) and I out went out to a Vietnamese restaurant. It was yummy!!
