It was so wonderful to share our happiness on our wedding day with all the family and guests that could make it to the ceremony and reception at the church; and other friends that came to the after party at our house.
It may have rained, but it sure did not ruin our day!
Thanks also for those that helped make the day so beautiful, including the Pastors, the musicians and singers, the cake maker, the caterer (even if he was a bit late), the bridesmaids and everyone else who helped us set up and clean up afterwards.
Thanks also for all the wonderful gifts!
We will be updating soon with pictures of our special day.

Finding the Church!
The most common question we have been asked is "Exactly where is the church?"
So I am posting a copy of a map that shows where the church is.

You will have to get on the Vestal Parkway and go towards the University Plaza, then turn onto Plaza Drive directly or go into the entrance for the University Plaza and drive to the western exit onto Plaza Drive and go a short bit up the hill. You cannot see the church from Plaza Drive as it is set back a bit; but there is a sign showing the entrance into the driveway to the church. I am posting a picture of the entrance so you will know what you are looking for. Go up the driveway the red car in the picture is driving down.

Looking forward to seeing you all there!

After Party
Judy and I have discussed having a party at our new apartment after the reception. We'd like to invite all of our family, friends, and co-workers to the wedding, but our budget and the size of the hall just doesn't allow it. So we decided to have a party at our place to continue the celebration and include more people on our special day.
We have two porches and a large back yard with a horseshoe pit, so hopefully the weather will co-operate so we can have fun outside; although we also have a large living room.
Directions and times will be included in future updates.

Reception Musicians

Judy and I were coming home from Ithaca one night in November and on a whim I suggested we try the Tioga Trails Cafe. It just so happened that Johanna & Burt were playing there that night.
It was a "magical" night for us. They played song after song that we both knew and loved, and did it great! Burt on electric guitar and playing the flute, and Johanna on keyboard as well as both singing. It was a small crowd that night; but Judy lit up like I had never seen her before; like someone had just flipped a switch. We were singing along with Johanna & Burt as we enjoyed a wonderful dinner. We both knew we would be seeing them again. We asked to be added to their mailing list so we could come see them perform again. Since then we have gone to see them perform a few more times. We have asked them to provide music for our wedding reception, and hope you all will enjoy their music as much as we do. They do not have a website yet, but here is a picture.
