Christine and Jonathan were married on November 8, 2009 at the Full Gospel Church in Livingston, NJ. The small, warm church was packed with family and friends to see this wonderful couple united.
Christine, a long time member of the church was married by her pastor. He didn't hide his emotions as he performed the ceremony for Christine, a one time student in his youth class.
It was a beautiful, warm November day. No doubt a gift from God above. One small glitch in the ceremony came when Christine and Jon went to light their unity candle. The wick was buried in the wax so it wouldn't catch. They tried, and tried, and tried for at least a couple minutes but it wouldn't light! But they didn't need to light a candle to show they were united. You could tell by the light in their eyes! OK, a little sappy, I know.
The reception was at the Liberty House in Jersey City. It was a great evening. Christine and Jon started out with an awesome dance to a Bruce Springsteen tune. They must have practiced for hours because they were flawless. Then they went into their traditional slow dance.
A live band played many of Jon's favorites, many Bruce Springsteen songs. It was a great evening of fun and celebration.
