Aug sparked my interest when he called to find out if I was available to officiate at his wedding in two weeks. So I created their ceremony on rather short notice which is different from my usual way of operating.
Karen and Aug could have lived life as it was forever...but they were moved to make their long relationship legal when they learned that Karen's daughter was pregnant. Nothing like the coming of the next generation to give one pause to re-evaluate what is meaningful in one's life.
So several family and friends gathered at their home last Sunday. We needed lots of tissues to get through the ceremony, but the vows were spoken, their rings were warmed by all present, and everyone signed the keepsake certificate of marriage. Candles were lighted in honor of their parents and all the generations before them.
Life and love goes on...generation after generation.
Julie Laudicina, Celebrant!
