Grant and Skye, arriving in New York City from summer in Australia, got here just in time to have their wedding ceremony the day after a huge snowfall. The severe weather quit, folks were all over the city, and, cold aside, we found a picturesque spot in Central Park for their ceremony.
They spoke their vows, and I read greetings from their parents back home. Skye's grandmother had sent two small hand-crafted butterflies with her for good luck, so she placed them on her bouquet.
The spirited holiday passersby cheered when the ceremony was over.
Kudos to Wolfgang Freithof, their photographer. He saved the day when the couple forgot their marriage license back at their hotel. Inspired by his idea, we all piled into the SUV they hired for the day...got the license signed...dropped us off at the Staten Island Ferry...and took the couple for photographs at the Brooklyn Bridge...just barely beating the setting sun.
Julie Laudicina, Celebrant!
