Ceremony Lakeside

The air was crisp.  The trees were multi-colored.  The lake was like a mirror.  The grounds were familiar to the bride and groom....it was the groom's family home in northern New Jersey.  It was time for me to officiate at a late afternoon autumn wedding.

 

 



Before the ceremony, the bride and groom signed the keepsake civil marriage certificate, and their mothers signed the NJ marriage license.  Every state is different...in NJ, the couple signs the license when they obtain it...not on the wedding day.

The wedding party processed from the house to the lakeside setting for the ceremony.  Guests from near and far were welcomed, and Peiling and Evan's love story was told.  Their siblings presented the well-chosen readings.  Vows were spoken and rings exchanged.  There was an elegant yet warm tone to the ceremony.  Guests were smiling throughout as I gazed around the audience...I was happy to do a good job for Evan and Peiling!

 

It is always a pleasure to work with The Finishing Touch Events!
