Five years ago K. and I married at the boat shop and said our vows in the company of our friends and family. Its an unbelievable experience to look around the room and see loved ones from all phases of life, and to bring these people together, connected through two people, into one time and place for the purpose of celebrating a union.
My mom and aunt used perennials and herbs to decorate our lunch tables the day before the ceremony, and clustered their pots into a garden cart outside of our reception on our wedding day. After our honeymoon we planted the soft pink and fuchsia peonies, yellow yarrow, French lavender, Shasta daisies and Stella de Oro Daylilies in our garden.
