The wedding ceremony of Susan and Stuart was in Central Park by the iconic Bethesda Fountain....on a cold, cold December afternoon. Several friends surrounded them with cheerful good will, and the low golden rays of the winter sun gave a luster to the happy couple.
They were quite involved in the ceremony's development...selecting their vows and writing a section about their love for one another. Their original plan for Susan to receive a "make-over" of her grandmother's ring from Stuart at the ceremony didn't happen. The refurbished ring with an additional diamond, a gift to Susan from Stuart, will be presented to her at a later date.
The groom invited all for a toast at the nearby restaurant,The Boathouse...and we were all so happy to be inside. Numb fingers and feet came back to life. The groom said it was the wedding he'd always wanted...and the bride smiled.
Ceremony Tip: If it is a really cold day, and your wedding is to take place outdoors, make sure someone keeps the pen warm. Have someone hold it next to some 98.6 degree skin. We could barely get the ink to flow for the signing of the license. That may seem like a small point, but I was concerned that the legal document be clear when is it filed. (Remember - no write-overs!)
