Meg and Nick Wed at Fearrington's Crabapple Garden!

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Weddings at <a href="http://www.fearrington.com/wedding/" target="_blank">Fearrington</a> are first class and always elegant. Gilda McDaniel and her staff really know how to do a wedding right. I always enjoy working with them and being the officiant at these lovely weddings. Nick and Meg's wedding was no exception. We met in August of 2012 and began planning their ceremony for October 5, 2013 at <a href="http://www.fearrington.com/wedding/" target="_blank">Fearrington</a>. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitzWTs6BPpeS4LWqytddpgKyVWgZnNCjbuRvcaCPlkgJZVp3nIbSep_StqLvE9ZHKcGELcjgw8GToYPsGRg7s_t-uKqW039HgR4pbt5NLPbguwdt8Gu4GD_c9kDygY3lhm9BC-qCdy7A/s1600/DSCN3194.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitzWTs6BPpeS4LWqytddpgKyVWgZnNCjbuRvcaCPlkgJZVp3nIbSep_StqLvE9ZHKcGELcjgw8GToYPsGRg7s_t-uKqW039HgR4pbt5NLPbguwdt8Gu4GD_c9kDygY3lhm9BC-qCdy7A/s400/DSCN3194.JPG" width="400" /></a></div> The beautiful Crabapple Garden is always a pretty spot with some shade too.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYM3d65fNW0LK-J4qqfi3LmZwA9HfjLDexENKJ95GQMYjCQ10W53tzDsf1oaUJjPomH-5cN18EvWflLob0NIiF7gVO-I5GJxTrOh9ISwWKKV2Trc_h85EdXq_q01jOYQR2Pwys-B4AwA/s1600/DSCN3196.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYM3d65fNW0LK-J4qqfi3LmZwA9HfjLDexENKJ95GQMYjCQ10W53tzDsf1oaUJjPomH-5cN18EvWflLob0NIiF7gVO-I5GJxTrOh9ISwWKKV2Trc_h85EdXq_q01jOYQR2Pwys-B4AwA/s640/DSCN3196.JPG" width="480" /></a></div><a href="http://www.fearrington.com/wedding/" target="_blank">Fearrington</a>'s florist, Mary Stevens, always adds just the right touch of floral arrangements.

They were both living in the DC area. Meg put an ad in Craig's List looking for a running partner and while he was perusing Craig's list looking for someone to cook with, Nick ran across Meg's ad. They emailed, found out they had mutual friends in the DC area, and decided to meet. They liked being with each other so much they started dating and soon became a couple. Two years later they moved to North Carolina and got engaged three years later. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOYiRcfwhygGxrGdA2DvsYPidSicIfpd19xpM5MgBony_haYjb4f2srh1N1-sp2f6iO6AWUsZK8YSGn6dvBWALas6BQNlQhJztuk1xS-Hmo3bfvLpPxtyq9-qlOhrVoQSuLrpTcKWTkg/s1600/DSCN3228.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOYiRcfwhygGxrGdA2DvsYPidSicIfpd19xpM5MgBony_haYjb4f2srh1N1-sp2f6iO6AWUsZK8YSGn6dvBWALas6BQNlQhJztuk1xS-Hmo3bfvLpPxtyq9-qlOhrVoQSuLrpTcKWTkg/s640/DSCN3228.JPG" width="480" /></a></div>Nick's sister, Lindsay, read "The Key to Love" by Robert M.

I thoroughly enjoyed working with you and then officiating your beautiful sweet wedding. I think everyone enjoyed themselves. And thank you for this review on Weddingwire.com: <span style="background-color: white; font-family: tahoma, geneva, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16.796875px;"><i>We loved working with Kayelily. She is easy to work with, responsive, helpful, and professional. She helped us craft a very special ceremony that made our guests (and the bride and groom), both laugh and cry. It was perfect, and we were so lucky to have her be a part of it!</i></span><br /><div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:

Wonderful Interfaith Wedding for Jessica and Michael at Fearrington!

Back in June of 2011, Jessica and Mike contacted me to officiate their wedding at <a href="http://www.fearrington.com/house/weddings.asp" target="_blank">Fearrington Village</a> on May 26, 2012. They liked that they could construct their own ceremony and that I was experienced in performing the Jewish wedding customs they wanted to incorporate into their ceremony. I also collected information about their relationship so that I could put together the story of how they met and fell in love and what they loved so much about each other. Jessica and Mike were delightful to work with and we had fun bringing their expectations of their ceremony into reality. When the big day arrived on this Memorial Day weekend, everything was coming together beautifully.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-egeAyUxTw4cCN9PKLtnp_YAj15d_4CLVbEvUQg9eg5dTIIx7jjcDiXdF0aS_IGUrDOFPuXApMsYepY1mdtj58Kzpn2aYYjaw5BMg3F5HZKdL6NS0HhnjCsWoXb8cZPbW-APgQxdcrQ/s1600/DSCN2962.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

Julie and Richard Had Two Weddings!

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Julie and Richard met with me last April to plan their wedding ceremony for November 25, 2011at  <a href="http://www.fearrington.com/house/weddings.asp">Fearrington Country Inn</a>. We worked hard to create a very memorable and meaningful ceremony for them. It was the second marriage for both of them and it was very important that this ceremony be very personal and dear to their hearts. Their story is very special and they felt like they have been handed a miracle in finding each other. Julie was quite happy to expound on the details of their meeting the first time and the subsequent events. Richard, on the other hand, travels a lot and had sent me a very brief summary of his side of the story. I told Julie I needed more material to work with and so she got on his case to call me which he did and as a result I took reams of notes and gathered fantastic material to work with in fashioning that section of the ceremony. We finalized the ceremony script by early October and were all set for their wedding the Friday after Thanksgiving Day. Later on in October, Julie called me and said that she and Richard really really wanted to get married on the magical date of 11/11/11 at 11:00 AM because of its significance and emailed me an article on it. The article: </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;"><i><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%;">The number 11 is thought of as a "master" number in numerology because it is a double digit of the same number. When this occurs - the vibrational frequency of the prime number doubles in power.  The very basic & primary understanding of the number One is that of new beginnings & purity. When we see this digit doubled as with the number 11, these attributes double in strength.  The power of the number is further intensified this year because on November 11, 2011 (11.11.11) the number resonates three times.  The year 2011 is significant because the sum of 2011 is 4 (2+0+1+1=4).  In numerology the number 4 represents form, foundation, and structure.  It is spirit manifest into matter, or those things that bring everything "down to earth." 2011 is a turning point year where the divine creative spirit, represented by 11.11.11 sets the foundation for what is to transpire in 2012.</span></i></span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 17px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: inherit;">They were thinking of going to the courthouse and getting secretly married on 11/11/11and wanted to check with me to see if that would be okay--would it affect my doing their "public" wedding later. I told them it would not affect it; that their 11/25/11 ceremony would technically be a renewal of vows ceremony and the ceremony on 11/11/11 would be their legal ceremony and real anniversary date. Then I invited them to come to my wedding garden, weather permitting, on 11/11/11 and I would be happy to marry them instead of having a standard quickie civil ceremony at the courthouse. They loved it! So </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 15px; line-height: 17px;">I wrote a much simpler and shorter ceremony for them but used the same vows and ring words from the ceremony we had already created but added some universal spiritual elements such as having them join left hands and right hands together to form the symbol of infinity "blessing their marriage in the eternal ebb and flow of the Universe" which fit in quite nicely with the significance of 11/11/11.
