Weddings with children

This Cape Cod wedding celebrant has been so busy presiding over weddings I haven't been able to write but here is a scenario I want to share with you.
The last four weddings I have done have included children. Such a treat for me. On Monday I met with a couple who are getting married in August. We met at Marion's Pie Shop which I highly recommend. Their two children were with us. It was also the bride's 30th birthday -so much to celebrate.
The children were so beautiful sitting in the big red adirondeck chairs, blueberry filling all over their faces excited about their upcoming roles in the wedding - well the little girl was, Bubba, their little boy, is only two and a half.
"Family is important." I said at one point and little Bubba repeated, "Family is important!"
When I asked if the couple had any favorite songs the groom immediately whipped out his phone and played me this tune. It says it all. So romantic I don't care if my son's voice in my head says EMO (wait until he's engaged !)

The picture above is of a couple whose anniversary was last week. Their flower girl was their daughter. To celebrate their wedding anniversary they welcomed their baby son into the world. Can't wait to meet and bless him!
More later- have a wedding at First Encounter with children!
Stay happy and totally engaged and don't give up....
