Wedding on Georges Island
On July 14th (just slightly behind here), Holli and Joe got married on Georges Island in the Boston Harbor. It was something really special.
Friday night was a pre-wedding dinner with family and close friends at a nice pizza place near the south end where Holli and Joe live. The food was great, but more enjoyable than that was being with Holli and Joe and all of their family and friends for an informal evening dinner. Some of the folks I had met before, and most of the others I had heard about. The evening was filled with good conversation, meeting new folks, hearing stories from the past, and giving tributes to Holli and Joe. We left feeling so enriched by the goodness of the evening.
Saturday took us out to Georges Island for the big day. The weather was perfect. We arrived before noon, walked around a bit, had bagged lunches from a local caterer (taxied in a boat out to the island that morning), met more folks, continued conversations etc. At 2 we went into the fort and witnessed the ceremony, which was me saying a few words about Holli and Joe, marriage, and everyone who had come to participate in the wedding.
Yes, if you look closely at the photo you'll see that I'm standing between the wedding couple. Holli and Joe had been married by a justice of the peace earlier, but had me conduct a public ceremony where they exchanged vows, rings, and made it official in their minds and hearts.
A more detailed write up is on Holli's blog, and more photos.
