Four Days in Baltimore

FamilyDobkin Wedding The next morning, we ran into Sylvia ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050027 on her way to the beauty parlor and got the before picture before her driver came ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050028 We went off to explore a little of the Inner Harbor pausing to admire the Bromo Seltzer ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050029 clock before running into Larry ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050030 at the aquarium where his group clutched their tickets ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050031 and we had a group effort to celebrate JonMarens' ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050032 birthday which can still be represented on less than 6 complete hands. This kept us amused until Jason ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050033 arrived to get his ticket. Of course, seeing the aquarium kept them from seeing the real sights of the harbor ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050034 and the waterfall ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050035 you could walk through and the statue of Thurgood Marshall ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050036

This led up to the main event, so Benjamin put on his tux ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050037 David put on his suit ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050038 and Jane showed Benjamin how to walk down the aisle ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050039 so he could practice in the parking lot ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050040 We had some photo ops outside the church ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050041 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050042 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050043 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050044 before Benjamin went in to the church ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050045 to get his pillow ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050046 While we were waiting, we greeted Barbara, ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050047 Eric, ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050048 Larry, ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050049 Dan alone, ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050050 and with Sylvia, ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050051 Suzanne ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050052 Paige and JonMarens, ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050053 and Betsy and Michelle ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050054 before zooming in on the bride ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050055 and her mother ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050056

Benjamin and the flower girl got ready ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050057 and had a practice step ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050058 before they hit the aisle ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050059 in front of the bride on her Dad's arm ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050060 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050061 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050062 until she joined Matt at the front of the church ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050063 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050064 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050065 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050066 while the best man helped the priest get the rings ready ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050067 and then they were married ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050068 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050069 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050070 and lit the candles of life ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050071 as the bridesmaids ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050072 watched, Michelle got ready to step in ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050073 and Benjamin played with the pillow ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050074 After a final blessing ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050075 they walked out as husband and wife ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050076 followed by the ring bearer and flower girl ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050077

Outside the church, the crowds gathered ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050078 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050079 and the wedding party waited ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050080 so that the bubbles could be blown. Benjamin practiced ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050081 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050082 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050083 cousin Rachel (without the beard) taught Aunt Florence to blow bubbles ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050084 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050085 and anticipation increased ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050086 until they ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050087 appeared.

On the way to the reception, we ran into the photographers who needed Benjamin to complete these pictures ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050088 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050089 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050090 Inside, we captured Jason and Michelle ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050091 JonMarens and Paige ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050092 Toba and Emily ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050100 and Toba, Ellen and Emily ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050101 We also took some possible campaign photos for LaHabra'2000 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050093 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050094 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050095 before the photographers ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050099 decided to take group pictures of all of us and this kind woman ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8060104 helped us take our own pictures ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050096 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050097 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8050098

Next it was time to dance, so Benjamin and Sarah hit the floor ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8060102 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8060103 but they were overshadowed when people started to be hoisted up on chairs. First Betsy and Matt ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8060105 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8060106 then Dick and Fran ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8060107 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8060108 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8060109 then Pat and Joe ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8060110 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8060111 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8060112 and Sylvia ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8060113 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8060114 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8060115 ../../../Sabbat/BetsyMattWedding//P8060116
