Che and James were married at the DC courthouse last week with a dozen of their most exuberant closest in attendance. Che made her beautiful hair piece and James teared up during the ceremony. Afterward, I took them to my favorite spot for post-courthouse-wedding portraits: the National Gallery of Art. It was a good day.
I’m sure I know lots of Canadian people, but I can’t think of any, so we’ll just go with Erin is the first person I’ve spent any significant amount of time with who is Canadian. And I must say, she and her family have convinced me that Canada breeds the nicest, most joyful, laid-back people on Earth. Not to be outdone, Patrick’s family brought the awesome with a dance-crazy aunt and incredibly silly groomsmen. These two already rocked the courthouse, but brought it all together last month for a big wedding at the Crowne Plaza in Crystal City.
Miriam and RJ were married at the Carnegie Institution for Science a few weeks ago, surrounded by some of the sweetest family I have ever met. And they played Whitney Houston’s “I Wanna Dance With Somebody” without even a hint of irony, which, if you ask me, speaks a lot to how ridiculously genuine they are. Their brunch wedding in the beautiful rotunda was about the most relaxed it is possible for a wedding to be, with plenty of smiles to spare.
