It has to be one of the greatest events for a Dad – the wedding of a daughter. I was no exception and the wedding weekend was an emotional and very happy occasion for everyone involved. Kate and Adam were looking very happy and very much in love the entire weekend and Grant and Luke arrived from Australia to join in the celebration.
Having the bridal party in Mission House and the rest of our family and friends in cabins at Chautauqua made it a very special time. Alice and Kate had a very special time getting ready on the morning of the wedding and I have to say it was a very memorable moment for me as well when I first saw Kate in her wedding dress.
The ceremony itself was very special with the signing of the Ketubah (I guess in times of old, Adam and I would have signed after first having negotiated how many cows and camels I would receive in exchange).
Then it was off to the outdoor ceremony under the Chuppah with the magnificent backdrop of the Flatirons.
After Adam successfully broke the glass with the accompanying “Mazel Tof”, it was off to the reception at the art-deco Boulder Theater.
After cocktail hour, Kate and Adam had their first dance, I welcomed the guests and made a toast, Adam responded and then it was time for food, drink and dancing.
One highlight was the Horah – Adam and Kate both managed to stay on the chairs, although we had strategically positioned Grant on one of Kate’s chair legs just in case!
During the evening, Adam and Kate managed to break away and climb onto the theater marquee for some photos.
We closed the theater down on the dance floor with the band sayin “Best. Wedding. Ever”. Such a great event and wonderful memories for us all.
