Christine and Brian are Married!

I had the pleasure of traveling out to Fire Island a couple of weeks ago for Christine and Brian’s lovely and intimate wedding on the beach. The ceremony, conducted by Pastor Mike, was beautiful and it was such an honor to be part of their celebration!

The puppy of honor;)So cute!

Christine and her dad walked down the “aisle” together and down to meet the other guests.

Only 12 guests, the pastor and me were there! They decided to limit the guest list to close family only.

After the ceremony, Christine, Brian and I went off to walk along the beach for a while. Brian’s pants didn’t fare so well in the waves;)

As we were walking over to the restaurant where everyone ate dinner, we stumbled across a band playing a public concert. The happy couple did a very sweet first dance:)

Their wedding was my first time on Fire Island, and I can’t wait to go back! It’s such a beautiful and fun place, since there are no cars and everyone is relaxing and enjoying the beachy atmosphere. Thanks again to Christine and Brian for having me along, and congratulations!!:)
