We Have Been Wedding-ing (#2)

Wedding #1 was on Saturday and a little over 6 hours later we were headed to the airport on our way to wedding #2!  There was no way we were going to miss out on the wedding of a girl I have known her whole life. She is the daughter of one of my best friends from seventh grade back in the New Jersey days!

Sue and her husband Greg are parents to four beautiful (inside and out) daughters. This is their first daughter to be married. More on these girls later...let's get to the wedding in New Hampshire.


The wedding was held at a camp (Pilgrim Pines/Camp Squanto) that I had attended
back in the Jersey years.
The mantel was decorated with fall foliage and harvested gourds and pumpkins.
Simple, yet so earthly elegant.
But who stole the show?
The over-the-moon-crazy-in-love couple!
 
 
Kiera and Stefan are just one of those couples who seemed destined to have a happy marriage.  Even as I compose this blog post, I smile just thinking about the two of them and the joy
they shared in being joined together in holy matrimony.
 
Now, on to the reception venue.


 
K and S sat at a Sweetheart table for two after they made their entrance with a memorable, choreographed dance. 
 











There were toasts and tributes,
and a sweet "rap" kinda thing by the bride's sisters
(shown on the left) that let the wedding-goers get a glimpse of what life was like for four sisters growing up together in shared bedrooms, bathrooms and a crowded mini van. And still, they appear to be the best of friends.

Kudos to their parents who have done a stellar job in raising four lovely daughters!
 
 
More surprises were unfolded as the evening reception progressed.
We were treated to New England "Contra Dancing" which is like square dancing but the dancers move in a large circle instead of small clusters.
An accordion player and a fiddler led the group.  Fun?  Fun!!
And then we danced ourselves out.
 
Waaaaay Out!
 
Congratulations, Kiera & Stefan!!
Much love to you as you begin your married life together.
