It was a double wedding day and so some would be going to Rory and Lindsay's and some to Devon's. But first, the family had to pose by the tree for potential new year's pictures.
and then I was replaced by Ed since we could (or could not) photoshop to a picture of the 6 of us
and then there were these photos of Sarah and Ed before they departed
and we departed for this parking space in the Hyatt lot in Philadelphia
before we walked past this historic spot
to the Independence Seaport Museum where we saw many of the guests of honor
including the mother
and father of the groom
as Seva posed with Suzanne and Jane
and I admired Peter's flower
before the Kramer parents
Jane and Ben
and the Kramer parents again posed
before the bride arrived for her big day.
Upstairs, we were able to use this setup
to make Ben a sea captain for the day
and once we walked out the door, we saw the Justs arriving below
against the backdrop of Auntie Anne's, should the food at the wedding be substandard
or in case A Taste of Summer didn't reopen.
We checked out the Ben Franklin bridge
as Suzanne cleaned her teeth
and Richard and Adrianne appeared on deck
soon to be followed by Judy Jaffe
and soon we were all seated so that the ceremony could begin overseen by these flags.
The chupah was set up
as the groom entered with his parents
and took his place at the altar
awaiting his bride
who came in with her father to the thrill of many photographers
and made her way
past August and Renee
to stand with her husband to be at the altar
in photos that lost their focus as the emotions of the moment moved us all.
But, soon the happy couple were marching back down the aisle united for life
and passing the first reviewing stand that included, among others, the thesis advisor.
All of this somehow quite amused Alison
as we made our way to the reception where the Leopold's modeled the signature drinks.
While waiting in line for my less signature drink, I ran into Jordan who was with Lauren Mack
and then Ben and Jane posed with their (well, maybe my) drinks
as I recorded the bridesmaids tattoo
and its detail
before observing the assembled
and making my way to where Seva was speaking with Peter's siblings -- Steven and Gale
who were then nice enough to pose for me
as Suzanne and Sara Just watched.
Next, I spoke with the groom who seemed to be enjoying his drink
and the bride who was toasting with hers
and then posed with Jane and Ben
before we spoke with Andy
who introduced us to his wife, Evan, who gave the children life advice
before posing with her mother in law
and then we got the happy family photo of Andy, Evan and Gale, though Shelly was not around
and then a photo of the Politziners
as Evan, Jane and Suzanne continued their discussion
before the bride and groom had their first married dance together
which amused Jane and Ben
who then posed with their mother
but before we could sit down to dinner, I needed to take a photo of Yea Afolabi, the officiant
and on the way to my seat, I met Steven's wife.
Once at the table, i recorded the flowers
and this picture was taken of Suzanne and me
as I took this picture of the Justs
and then the salad arrived
as I recorded Camilel Charles and her husband
but didn't do a good job of getting Tom Mack as he welcomed us
and then faded into darkness
before Josh enlightened us
and then posed with the Pasachoffs
as Ben and Jane
got ready for these family photos
so that we could leave this message
and after admiring the cake
observe
and add to the ketubah
as August ran circles around the dance floor
before the bride danced with her father
and the groom with his mother
all of which was a prelude to the hora
where after some misfires
the bride and groom did their elevated chair dance
which inspired all of us to dance
including Josh and Camille (not together)
before we went to speak with Tom Mack
and then with Susan Mack
as some fancy dancing began. much of which couldn't be recorded
|
until the Kramers began to dance
after which the cake was cut
to the amusement of Suzanne, Jane and Ben who were waiting
to watch the bride and groom escape the photographers
so that they could cut
|
and then feed one another
as Peter watched
and then Lindsay danced with her father
as Jane and Ben gave direction
and this gentleman from Tampa told me the tales of his life.
AS the evening was winding down, we said good night to the Politziners
and did our eyes before the orchids poses which Jane did well
but then posed normal
which inspired Josh to top her
but Ben posed normal
as we said goodnight to the Justs
as I posed with orchid
which opened my eyes for the drive home
and so we bid farewell to Seva, peter and Naomi
as Peter and Jane shared some warm thoughts
and we said good night to Adrianne and Richard
before heading out and noticing that there were ice pops in many flavors
from the Lil' Pop Shop
including this tasty chocolate.
Once back home, we recorded where we had been.
