fall wedding

Yesterday, my friend's mom got married at the beautiful Hale Memorial Park, in Newburyport. The park is right next to their house and across the street from the seawall, so there was an amazing view of the ocean during the ceremony. For October in New England, it wasn't completely freezing, but there was a little bit of a breeze. The park was still in bloom and the fountain was running, and even the sun decided to make an appearance. As we were gathering outside waiting for the ceremony to begin and taking pictures, it started raining, so we all ran back to the house for sparkling cider and cheese. The rain stopped a little while later, so we proceeded back to the park for the ceremony.
After, everyone headed over to Ten Center Street for dinner. I was excited to see a cheese table, not only because I was hungry, but because cheese is one of my favorite foods. We ate crab cakes, spinach and goat cheese phyllo, salad, and ridiculously delicious bread before our actual meals came. And then we remembered the sundae bar and cake that were for dessert. Needless to say, nobody could move after dinner, so we continued talking and listening to the music. It was a beautiful wedding, and an enjoyable way to welcome Fall (other than school).
