For my last post of the month I’m going to switch it up a little. This past weekend I had the pleasure of being a part of the wedding for two of my good friends - Sarah & Ben - & I’d like to talk about that experience.
I’ll start with the venue, Aldridge Gardens - which is less a garden, & more a small forest encircling a lake. Of the weddings I’ve been too - the last of which was over a decade ago - this would have to be one of the most beautiful. A lover of nature, I couldn’t help but explore the grounds during moments of downtime & the two couldn’t have picked a better place to celebrate their big day.
The ceremony itself - which would have been outside had it not been for a bout of rain - was overfilled as all of their loved ones huddled inside to witness their union. Not knowing the couple for long, I wasn’t aware just how many people would be at their wedding - it was interesting seeing how many people showed up; from friends, to family, to coworkers, & even old teachers - they all wanted to be there to celebrate with them. As a groomsman I had the pleasure of looking out at the sea of faces in attendance - I could see everyone in attendance watch in awe as the two professed their undying love for one another, promising themselves to each other forevermore.
The reception was also a lot of fun. The food was good, the music was bumping, & the atmosphere was filled with the type of love & fun I hope the couple will experience for the rest of their lives together. Also, I’m always going to remember Ben breaking out in dance to the rhythm of DixieLand Delight.
So, even with a few snafus - the rain, a stained dress, & a DJ who had trouble following directions - they still managed to have a beautiful ceremony; but even more importantly, they were able to have a wonderful day with each other & those they love.
All in all, this was an amazing ceremony that I was very glad to be a part of. Cheers to Sarah & Ben on their #nuptials, & to spending the rest of their lives together. I really do wish them a world of happiness! #AlwaysAnAlexander.
