This Cape Cod Wedding officiant/celebrant/interfaith minister

  just finished her last scheduled wedding ceremony for 2014. Welcome to all unscheduled recently engaged or soon to be engaged couples. I'm ready and willing. This last weekend the bride and groom planned their wedding in two months with the help of Emily Coulter on Martha's Vineyard. What they couldn't plan for was the Nor'easter that blew in....but it shows so much about how a couple deals with things that are out of their control and love prevails ...and is victorious! We came inside and did the ceremony in front of the stone hearth. The guests cuddled in and welcomed this great couple into The Country of Marriage. I can't wait to see the photos.

For now I will share this photo that I just received. Happy One Month Anniversary for Siobhan and Jay!

wants to follow up on her previously posted Runaway Wedding story. The couple who had banned all wedding talk 6 months prior to their big day, married last weekend. Their tented ceremony up on the second level of the Pigrim Monument in Provincetown took place on a true Autumn day. At sunset a  clearing lifted the mist and the illumination was all the more spectacular.  Their vows brought tears to the eyes in warm and wonderful sincerity. The view of Provincetown Harbor where the pilgrims anchored and drafted the Mayflower Compact made a sense of history and place a part of their wedding day.

Soulful September Weddings on Cape Cod

loves September Weddings on Cape Cod. It's the new June when it comes to Cape Cod Weddings.

It's a long long time from May to December and the days grow short as you reach September ......lyrics from September Song by Kurt Weill.

And the beaches are empty, the water is warmer ...reallly ideal for a nuptial or two. The first and last photo was at the Jonathon Young Windmill at the Orleans Inn .

A Lovely Little Wedding

 I have presided over big and small weddings at homes, at venues and on beaches. Even an extravagant affair can feel intimate and cozy if the couple is there. If they show -up in the moment. It is easy to get distracted because this is a momentous moment; a sacred threshold. But it is really lovely when you witness the couple as they realize what is about to happen. And see them genuinely moved when they give their word in marriage.

No matter how big or small, lavish or simple, when the couple themselves are in the moment, the wedding is always lovely.

Late Autumn and Winter Weddings on Cape Cod

This Cape Cod Wedding Officiant/ Celebrant/ Interfaith minister was just chatting with her dear friend who now lives in Texas. Meredith, my friend, was stunned when I said my outdoor wedding season on Cape Cod was not yet over. In fact, on Wednesday I'll be presiding over a wedding outside at Chatham Bars Inn. In the photos below, taken by Stacy Hedmond last year in December, Kerry and Edward say, "I do."  I much prefer the cool breezes with a few goosebumps to the scorching heat of midsummer. So my friend, send those mink wraps and let the winter wonderland weddings begin !
