Happy Anniversary: Kara & Simon

What a weekend!

Labor Day weekend three years ago at Sebasco Harbor Resort hummed with activity to celebrate the wedding of Kara and Simon.

The bride and groom, together with their families, provided a true Maine experience for their guests: sailing in the bay, lobster bake, reggae band (wait, did I say Maine?), blueberry breakfasts, swimming… and that was all BEFORE wedding day!

Skies were blue and bright as the bride walked down the aisle wearing an elegant dress and a 10-foot foot long veil – an heirloom that had been in her family for generations.

The groom stood proudly. A grand cheer went up as the glass was broken. Mazel tov!

The merriment continued under the orchestration of Tony Boffa; not a single guest was left in their seat. The bride and groom did their fair share of turns on the dance floor – moving with the style and grace of a couple who had been dancing together for years.

I recall a moment at the end of the evening, watching the couple tucked away together in the corner of the Resort’s pub. Their sincere smiles were the mark of a wonderful day. They were still enjoying the company of friends and family … but they were clearly folded into one another with the focus of a newly and happily married couple. Just the beginning.

Cheers Kara and Simon!… to you and your third anniversary. May you always celebrate life with family and friends… especially with the memory of the Maine coast. It was more than “beginner’s luck” that the two of you found each other.
