I like it when I am in a place where everyone else is happy to be there. It's very easy not to have a problem with this. To look out and see grandma dancing without any worries, to feel a shared completeness in the belief that two people, together can lift each other up and bring family and friends with them. Allison and John, Congratulations and thank you, for this was a beautiful weekend.
Additional note about the aesthetics: cool lighting and touches for the reception. Nuance and dynamics abound. During the wedding ceremony at Old South Church I noticed what seemed to be an unattended camera up high, 2nd level, left aisle. Later at the reception dinner, we were invited to turn our attention to a slide show which was actually edited film from the rehearsal dinner, from the wedding, and the entry of the bride and groom just minutes before. Eerie, surprising, engaging. The eerie feeling is how up to the minute this was- perhaps leading into the future? Surprising as these screenings are rarely surprising but this was. Engaging as it pulled everyone in. The details, the extra touches. Ah, that unattended camera was running and that too, had a purpose. What a show!
