They got married!

Our daughter and her fiance had destination wedding plans for August 14th - their shared birthday. Covid got in the way of those plans, but they decided a few weeks ago to make it happen near their current location.

It was delightful - the weather cooperated - the forecast was calling for rain yesterday, but we had a great mix of sun and clouds. We shared it with family and friends from an overlook in the Georgia mountains near where they are renting a remote cabin during this portion of the pandemic. The video should still be available - be aware we started it early, so the ceremony starts about 15 minutes after the video begins streaming.

Mazel Tov! You can only wait so long. Reminds me of my parents' generation which produced so many courthouse marriages right after WWII ended.

Only nowadays, thanks to ZOOM, a dream wedding can be shared with one and all without even having to feed the crowd.

I guess the only casualty is the wedding gifts!

Congratulations!!!

Rob, I’m so sorry that they weren’t able to do it the way they originally planned, but I hope this joyful day will live in their hearts, and yours, as perfect in every way.

And what a wonderfully done wedding site, featuring incredibly beautiful people in glorious settings.

They certainly seem well matched, and after six years of shared adventure, they must surely know it to the bottom of their hearts!

Congratulations and best wishes. It was a lovely wedding ceremony at a marvelous location. I especially enjoyed seeing the two hawks that circled in the background during the ceremony. It seemed auspicious to me.

The Appalachian Mountains are among my favorite places on earth and I really like the long vistas such as they chose for the wedding. I have one child who lives north of Atlanta and another in North Carolina and two of my children went to college in the south (Georgia Tech and Florida Atlantic U.) so I've had occasion to travel through the Blue Ridge, Great Smokies and surrounding mountain ranges many times. It never gets old.

The hawks were a touch of magic - right as the officiant was talking about rings, the hawks came circling in to view. They have been to that spot many times and never seen hawks come so close!
