NH Justice of the Peace Wedding Journal

Presided over a short ceremony for a great couple in front of a few family and friends in Hampton, NH on Saturday. It was a warm and humid day outside, but the ceremony was inside where we were all cool and comfy! Congratulations Jessica & Stephen!

Performed a beautiful ceremony for a great couple at the Inn in Durham on Friday. It included vows that were incorporated into a sand ceremony – a unique way to combine the two! It also included a unique processional where the groom was walked up the aisle by his parents followed by the bride and her parents. Colors were lime green and bright royal blue. Best Wishes Joshua & Emily!

Officiated a spiritual elopement ceremony for a beautiful couple at Odiorne State Park Sunday. The couple found a nice private and quiet spot on the beach for the ceremony. The ceremony included The Lord’s Prayer, and I took some pics of the happy couple after we were done – one of them featured the Groom carrying the Bride in the water! Very cool. Best Wishes Jessie & Adam!

Performed a wedding for a wonderful couple at the Inn on Saturday evening. The ceremony featured a great reading by the Groom’s Grandmother, a Black Lab (Birdie) as a (very well behaved) maid of honor, and some really cute flower girls! This was my second coral colored wedding of the day, and they followed each other, so I didn’t have to change my coral colored tie between ceremonies. (I love it when that happens!) Best Wishes Josh & Michelle!

Performed a ceremony and provided music and voice amplification for a great couple on Saturday at the Dell-Lea Country Club. The ceremony featured a reading by the Groom’s sister. The main color was coral, which seems to be a popular color for ceremonies this season – and, of course, I wore my coral tie to match. On the other hand, purple, which was popular last year, is not being used as much this season, which is a good thing, since my purple tie needs a rest! Congratulations Paul & Jessica!

It was a cloudy, breezy, cool morning at Hampton Beach Saturday, where I married a wonderful couple in front of the New Hampshire Marine Memorial. A small group of family and friends were present as the couple said their vows. Best of Luck Savanah & Shayne!

Officiated a quick ceremony for a great couple accompanied by a few family members in our Ceremony Room yesterday. Congrats James & Luz!

Hampton Beach was the site for a quick ceremony I officiated on Monday. The couple had just flown in from Germany where he is stationed in the Army. Best Wishes Adam & Marie!

Officiated a quick elopement ceremony for a couple (and their three children) in our Ceremony Room on Monday. Congrats Adam & Amber!

Performed a custom designed wedding at Three Chimneys Inn this past Saturday. Also helped with the rehearsal the evening before. The ceremony featured a poem read by the Maid of Honor, and a song (“If Not For You” – George Harrison) performed by the bride’s sister and a friend. We also had a affirmation from the guests as they vowed to support the couple in their marriage. The photographer was Nicole Derr. Congratulations Kathleen & Geoff!
