Mari’s wedding
This past weekend was Mari’s wedding, and a beautiful wedding it was, too. Actually, the entire weekend was amazing and intense; I came home exhausted yet exhilirated.
First things first: the wedding itself. Mari did me the huge honor of asking me not only to play the music at the ceremony, but also to sign the ketubah as well, which means I acted as her witness to the validity of the wedding contract. This moved me more than I seem to able to articulate, and I felt genuinely honored. The ceremony itself went smoothly (I played fine, and I didn’t need to be nearly an anxious about it as I’d feared) and relatively quickly. Mari and Eliza chose a primarily Jewish ceremony with nods to Eliza’s Episcopal tradition.
I have a backlog of unfinished entries and drafts. In the interest of getting back into blogging, I’m going to just publish them as is, despite their rough form.
