Glass Blur

Why do the fun, exciting things in life always go by in a blur? We wait for long months, imagine the reactions of family and friends, and swish it's over in a seeming heartbeat or two. We attended the beautiful wedding yesterday in New Jersey of our stunning niece Daniella and her handsome beau Christopher. As a perfect snowfall fell outside the The Manor's wide expanse of windows, we caught up with family times, partook in a banquet-like scrumptious meal that kept coming and coming and toasted many times to a long and quintessential life to the couple.
To Daniella and Christopher:
May these next many, many years not go by in a blur.
Godspeed!

  2. Lovely picture! I remember thinking that same thing about my own wedding many years ago. Months of planning and it all went by in the blink of an eye.

  4. You've crystallized the problem of time quite well. Sounds like a fun wedding. Maybe it was the wine that caused the blur whereof you spoke? Yes? Perhaps?

  5. Stunning chandelier! Wouldn't want to have to clean it. The wedding must have sparklers in many different ways!

  10. It was a true winter wonderland wedding. Massive windows to a lit up outside world, snow falling the entire time..... until it was over. Disney couldn't have
    choreographed it any better.
