Not Our Wedding

Last Saturday, we attended a lovely wedding (Mark Washburn, a former colleague, and his lovely bride Nancy Garrett) in Lyme Center followed by a reception at the Dartmouth Outing Club in Hanover, NH.

Everything was sophisticated, from the Shaker-style setting of the Lyme Academy Building to Nancy’s dress and garnett necklace to the menu catered and served by the Hanover Inn to the toasts offered by dear friends.

Roger and I chose a simple backyard wedding on Thursday, September 21, 2006 (yes, this is us!). Second marriages for us both. Low-key but what we wanted, hearts full of love and laughter.

Two months later it was interesting to vicariously renew vows and think about the recent changes we’ve made. We’ve actually had a more difficult time with the transition than either of us expected, but we seem to be on the other side of that now.

There was a warm sweetness sitting there observing and knowing we would always be together just as our two friends were promising to do.
