Rachel And Jason's Wedding, Part 2

5/17/2017

...Continued from yesterday:

The following morning, the day of the wedding, started off with the hotel's great buffet breakfast which people ate sitting here, there, and everywhere, all around the lobby,

...including at the color-changing bar (see yesterday's post),

After breakfast some of the out-of-town family members went to visit Tom's 98-year-old dad in his assisted living facility, which was not far from the hotel, .so that the family could share with him some of the joy of the day.

Meanwhile the bride and her ladies were getting ready,

...as were the groom and his men,

...and the guests.

Mary Jane, mother of the groom, ready for the wedding.

The wedding took place at beautiful St. Christopher Church.

But the beauty of the setting could not compare to the beauty of the joy that radiated from the faces of the Rachel and Jason's parents,

...or of the love that shown in Rachel and Jason's eyes.

After the wedding the guests and the wedding party gathered outside the church, Alyssa, sister of the bride and Maid of Honor, Michael, brother of the bride, and Lisa, mother of the bride,

...Randy, brother of the groom, looking every inch the best man,

...to wait for the grand arrival of the happy newly weds.

...where the sweetness of the moment was emphasized by the arrival of a cupcake truck,

...which handed out the most delicious cupcakes to the wedding guests, though I had to take the deliciousness of the cupcakes at the word of the other guests, as I, along with Tom, Claire, Tommy and Emily had to hurry back to the hotel after the wedding, to set up a snack for out-of-town family hosted by the parents of the groom.
