Show Us Your Life — Wedding Receptions and Honeymoons

When we planned our wedding, we made everything really simple by having the ceremony and reception at the same location, a historic courthouse. Since we had our ceremony inside (darn the hot temperature!), we had the food inside and tables outside for eating and mingling. It really worked out well.

There was dancing.

There was cake. The wedding cake was *supposed* to be an almond cake, but somehow it got messed up and we had just a plain cake with buttercream icing. It was still good, though. Joe’s groom’s cake was a cookie cake because Joe absolutely loves cookie cakes.

And, of course, we did the bouquet and garter tosses. My niece, Amber, and Joe’s cousin, Ryan, caught them respectively.

And, there was the traditional Jewish chair dance. I was *terrified* while I was up there because it felt like my brothers were trying to tip me off my chair!

Our guests blew bubbles at us at the end of our reception.

We spent our honeymoon in Boston. There was one specific reason we chose that location.

Yes, we’re baseball-crazed people! We also toured a *lot* of the historical sites and went on a whale watching cruise. It was so much fun. We can’t wait to go back.

    What a gorgeous reception! And Boston is such a fun idea for a honeymoon. We went to the Dominican Republic for ours. It was fabulous.

    Wonderful pictures. What the heck is the bride doing to the groom on that cookie cake?!? 🙂

    Cady,

    We live 40 minutes outside of Boston! In fact I worked in Downtwon Boston for 8 years. I stopped when Nick was 5 months old, I felt the need to be closer to his daycare.

    We LOVE the Boston Red Sox too!

    Check out the website: http://www.chowdaheadz.com/
    Grab Lucy a T-shirt…

    When you headed back to Boston, give me a shout on my blog! You’ll have a private tour guide and Lucy and Nick could play together!

    I’m from Maine so the Boston Red Sox are the winning team! Love the big cookie! Great idea.
    My husband has been in my life for 20+ years and I still feel my heart skip a beat when he walks in the door.
    I pray that all you ladies have that feel for years to come.
    What a beautiful reception ~ cake and decorations.
    You both look so happy!

    The Adidas superstar Canvas Black is actually history in reverse considering that the original adidas shoes made the Converse Canvas obsolete by introducing the cheap Adidas shoes leather. There are many different kinds products of Gucci outlet for your selection, including Gucci handbags, Gucci wallets. The month of October brought on a new Vibram FiveFinger offering for men — the black Vibram Five Fingers, orange, and gray FiveFingers, which has been a hit.

We’ve had some amazing times, some not so great ones, and we really put the “in sickness and in health” part of our vows to the test this last year. This man is always willing to get my pain pills in the middle of the night, has helped me through Covid recovery and does everything I can’t without complaint. He’s also the funniest person I know and can always make me laugh, and he’s pretty hot, too. I am a lucky woman to call him my husband. Here’s to many more years of happily ever after. I love you! ❤️❤️
