Beautiful, just beautiful. That is how I could describe the entire weekend.
Chris and I hopped on a plane to visit Western New York for Adam and Meredith’s wedding. I met Meredith in my freshman dorm- er “residence hall.” (As a retired campus tour guide, I need to get my terms right!) The rest as they say, is history.
It was so wonderful being able to have a reunion with college friends, especially for such a wonderful occasion! We arrived on Saturday night, just in time to see Canandaigua’s annual Ring of Fire. Definitely a fantastic way to start the weekend!
Sunday was the wedding… and what a wedding it was. The wedding was at Bristol Harbour, an absolutely breath taking venue for a wedding. It overlooks Canandaigua Lake, which provides a gorgeous backdrop for the ceremony.
The rain held off perfectly, the food was delicious, and we danced the night away. Just the way you hope every wedding will be! I loved the touches that Meredith and Adam added to their ceremony and reception. The bouquets were made of wheat, lavender and peacock feather… stunning against the blues of the bridesmaids. Wedding wishes to the bride and groom that were read during the ceremony. Thanks, Kelly, for reading mine! The guest book where everyone got to sign a leaf on a pen and ink tree. As I said, beautiful is the way I would describe the whole weekend!
Here’s my wedding wish to Adam and Meredith again:
Wishing you always walls for the wind,
A roof for the rain,
Tea beside the fire,
And the love and laughter of those you hold dear.
