Doreen and James were married on a very exciting March 6, 2010 day in Hoboken, NJ. Everyone in Hoboken that day was green with envy! Well, perhaps they were green because it was the annual St. Patrick's Day Festival in Hoboken.
That's right, Doreen and James decided to get married on a day that just so happened to coincide with Hoboken's biggest party gathering.
The weather was amazing for early March. A warm sunny day greeted the couple as they arrived at St. Francis at Jefferson and 3rd.
Doreen looked amazing as she came down the aisle, James nervously waiting for her.
The part of the ceremony I remember most was the priest who gave a very profound yet entertaining message. At one point he said something like, "at times during your marraige Doreen will ask - Jimmy, why didn't you do this? Jimmy, why didn't you do that? To which Jimmy will respond, yes dear... yes dear... yes dear... but in his mind he will be thinking, KILL, KILL, KILL!" The congregation erupted in laughter. I'm sure the married couples on hand that day found it right on target!
As for the reception, it was a fantastic evening at they Hyatt in Jersey City. While my one videographer got shots of Doreen and James outside with the New York City skyline behind them, I turned around a short highlights video of the ceremony I played during cocktail hour.
An excellent live cover band played many older and contemporary tunes. One special part of the evening is when a friend or family member (I'm not sure which) grabbed the mic and performed a flawless 80s rap.
It was an excellent day...
