Performed a short ceremony for a couple upstairs at the Strikers-East Bowling Center on Saturday. The groom and most of his groomsmen were dressed in their navy blues. Best of luck Shauna & Paul!

Provided the voice amplification and an official pronouncement of marriage for a couple at the Dell-Lea in Chichester, NH on Friday. I do about one of these types of events a year. The bride’s uncle performed the ceremony, and I stepped in at the end to pronounce the couple officially “married.” Congratulations Abby & Adam!

Bethany Chapel was the site of a spiritual elopement ceremony I performed this past Sunday. The couple said a prayer and lit a unity candle before saying their vows. This was the first time I had been at this chapel. It’s beautiful, and the perfect place for a small, intimate ceremony. Best Wishes to Janet & Jeffrey!

It was a great day for a ceremony in Nottingham, NH this past Saturday. This was a cowboy themed wedding with a lot of people in attendance!  In addition to performing the ceremony, we provided the music and the mics for voice amplification. The hit of the ceremony was Zipper – the couple’s Black Labrador Retriever, who served as a Bridesmaid. Congrats Sherry & Alan!

Performed a wonderful ceremony at the Inn on Friday. The Bride sang a song to her groom on the way up the aisle. It was a surprise to him, and he thoroughly enjoyed it – as did I and the guests! There were three readings in the ceremony. The weather was beautiful for a reception out on the terrace. Congratulations Monica & Charles!

The Kent House in Chester was the site of a wonderful ceremony I performed this past Sunday. It’s a beautiful historic property, and the day turned out to be good weather-wise. The toughest part of the ceremony for me was pronouncing the Bride’s full name. Usually I’m pretty good at pronunciation, but this may have been the toughest name I’ve ever had! Still, I gave it the old college try and I think it came out OK! Congratulations Yulia & Tim!

I perform weddings at the Country Club at least four or five times a year and I’m always impressed. This time was no different. Just a great place to have a ceremony and reception. The couple had a traditional ceremony in front of about 150 guests. They created their own custom vows. Best Wishes to Jon & Sarah!

Performed a great ceremony at the Wentworth By The Sea Country Club this past weekend. It’s the first time (I think) I performed a ceremony there, although I was having deja vu, so i think I may have performed as a DJ there back in the day. I was impressed with the way the coordinator ran the rehearsal (inside because of rain but very thorough). Congrats to Brian & Shiela!

Performed a ceremony in the beautiful Upper Garden at the Inn this past Saturday. This couple was pretty laid back, and they thoroughly enjoyed both the rehearsal and the ceremony. Congrats Tacy & Patrick!
