Presided over a Lite Wedding Ceremony for a very nice couple with their children in attendance at the Conservation Area last Thursday morning. The weather was great, but we couldn’t go down to the river bank because the water was running so high. Best wishes R & E!

Presided over a Lite Spiritual Wedding Ceremony for a very nice couple at their home yesterday afternoon. Congratulations T & K!

Performed a Classic Wedding Ceremony for a very nice couple at The Rose on Thursday afternoon. About 60 were in attendance. The couple’s dog Tank was the ring bearer, and he did a great job! Colors were dark green and blush. Congratulations and best wishes Paul & Francesca!

Performed a Classic Spiritual Wedding Ceremony for a wonderful couple for my second wedding of the weekend at the Granite Rose late Saturday afternoon. About 100 were in attendance. Colors were navy, ivory, burgundy, and champagne. The couple recited traditional vows during the wedding, but stepped away from the crowd to share their own personal vows in private after the ceremony was done. Congratulations and best wishes Kevin & Alina!

Presided over a Lite Spiritual Elopement Ceremony for a delightful couple on the beach at Hampton on Saturday afternoon. It was rainy, windy, and cold, so we had the entire beach to ourselves (which is something you can’t often say about Hampton Beach!) — but that made it really nice! I took a few pictures of the couple using their cell phone after the ceremony was over. Best Wishes B & M!

Performed a Winter-Themed Wedding Ceremony for a great couple at the Rose late Friday afternoon. The atmosphere was truly magical as it was dusk, and the venue had beautiful lights on at the gazebo where the wedding occurred. It was a fairly chilly December day, so the winter theme was perfect and made it an amazing evening! The ring-bearer was the couple’s cat Billy, who very quietly sat on the best man’s shoulder for the entire ceremony. About 70 were in attendance. Colors were navy blue, maroon, and gold. Wishing you all the best Tyler & Brianne!

Presided over a Custom Wedding Ceremony for a wonderful couple at Little Harbor Chapel this past Saturday. About 20 were in attendance. The wedding featured readings by both the bride’s and groom’s cousins, and a surprise ring ceremony involving the groom and the bride’s daughter. Colors were dusty blue, dark blue, peach, and burgundy. Best wishes Jay & Mal!

Performed a Classic Wedding Ceremony for a delightful couple indoors at the Rose on Friday afternoon. About 130 were in attendance. Colors were bordeaux and gray. Congrats David & Allison!

Performed a Lite Wedding Ceremony for a wonderful couple at the Toscana Italian Chophouse & Wine Bar in Portsmouth late Halloween afternoon. The ceremony was held in one of the four gorgeous wine rooms the venue has for private events. I dressed the part for the holiday with a black suit and orange tie. Best wishes A & K!
