Worth and Sarah had planned a large wedding at a barn with a full wedding party but with the virus were forced to make new arrangements. At first, they thought they would have to cancel and reschedule for next year. But then they bought a house and it became clear that their new backyard was the perfect place to get married. And they were so right!

Their house in Wooster has a lovely, large deck with an impressive stairway going down into the yard. About 20 guests were under two tents that gave them shade on a beautiful, sunny, 85 degree afternoon. The guests were treated to a bagpiper for a half hour before the ceremony who also played as Sarah made her entrance. She looked like a fairy princess in a full-length dress with a lace top and a tulle skirt. Worth was very handsome (and very warm) in tuxedo pants and vest.

Both were nervous but also very excited. They did a great job reciting their vows and ring exchange with sincerity and love. The entire ceremony went smoothly until I had to remove a spider that was on Sarah’s veil and climbing quickly to the top of her head. Once the uninvited guest made his departure, I pronounced them husband and wife to applause from their family and friends. The bagpiper played them out and to what I am sure is going to be a happy every after for this sweet couple.
