The Best Union Ever

Jon Collier and Stephanie Ziobro got married on October 31st in Massachusetts. My pictures of the wedding did not come out well enough to post, but you can see some great shots of their honeymoon at Jon's Flickr site.

The wedding was wonderful. The bar was open for an hour before the ceremony, so everyone was as relaxed as they needed to be for the wedding. Stephanie, and probably some help from Jon, wrote the ceremony. It was great. The best thing was that as each repeated the written vow, the Mistress of Ceremonies, or High Priestess, or the Marraiger, asked them if they really meant what they said in their vow, and each let the gathered community of friends, family, hangerson, and recruits from the street know that they were serious about this marraige.

Following the ceremony, the bar reopened, dinner was served, and several of their friends regaled the audience with stories of how they met, what they were like when they were younger, and Jess did a wonderful piece about what Fran would have said and done if she had lived long enough to attend the ceremony.

Then there was loud music, dancing, and the bar remained open. Who could ask for more.

To make more sense of everything, I would invite you to visit the wedding web site at bestunionever.com It tells the stories of two wonderful people who were made for each other, and gives you some insight of what their life may be like in the near future.

Congratulations to both of you. Love you both.
