Nothing But Blue Skies From Now On

Kelly & Jonathan's day began with a ceremony on the terrace of La Massaria, under a sky that threatened rain all afternoon. Just when it started to look as though the ceremony would be moving indoors, the sun parted the clouds and the sky changed from an ominous gray to a deep blue.

During their ceremony, they performed a sand ceremony and listened while a soloist sang "I Will Be Here" by Steven Curtis Chapman.

On Kelly and Jonathan's place card table, there was a small truck handcrafted by Jonathan to commemorate the passing of a family member. A talented woodworker, Jonathan had also crafted a crate that held the ceremony's programs.

After a grand entrance into the ballroom and a first dance as husband and wife, dinner began. One of the things I have noticed about La Massaria is how quickly and precisely they can deliver dinner. There never seems to be any snags holding up the meal, ever. It is definitely not a commonplace quality for a facility to be as efficient as these guys.

After dinner, the guests shared a few drinks at the bar, strolled the front porch area, and danced the night away.

It was especially nice to see how much Kelly and Jonathan seemed to love one another. They could be seen, at nearly any moment throught the evening, sharing a slow dance, standing close together, and always looking at one another like they were just falling in love again for the first time. Awesome...

Congratulations, Kelly and Jonathan!

Kelly & Jonathan's comments about their wedding entertainment:"Steve was more than a great DJ, he made the ceremony and reception run smoothly. I did not have to worry about anything. He was at the ceremony long before it started to ensure everything was setup and to meet with the soloist and minister. During the reception he interacted with the guests and also updated the many Phillies fans of the current playoff scores. The best thing about Steve is his awesome personality!! I have been to over ten weddings this year alone and I have to honestly say, Steve by far was the best! After the wedding people were still talking about Steve and I had three people ask for his name, that says a lot! Thanks again, Steve!"
