Real Wedding - MaryBeth and Will - East Haddam, CT.

Image
Real Wedding – MaryBeth and Will – East Haddam, CT. MaryBeth and Will Wood (as he’s known to his friends) met one Friday night in Southington. And that’s how their love story began. Initially, things started slow because, over the winter of 2018 both Mary Beth and Will were quite sick. So, it was not until September that they traveled to Philly. After a beautiful afternoon of champagne, connection and cuddles, Will asked Mary Beth to get dressed for dinner. She put on his favorite pin-up dress and he put on his suit. Minutes later, while the camera was still snapping, Will got down on one knee. After Mary Beth said “NO” 13 times in disbelief, Will double checked that there was a “YES” somewhere in there and she assured him there was. They look forward to their next adventure, the adventure of a lifetime. MaryBeth and Will’s Introduction Music: Kerli – Tea Party / The Pixies – Where Is My Mind MaryBeth and Will’s First Dance: The New Basement Tapes – When I Get My Hands On You

So, guests ‘vote’ by putting money in either container to determine who should get cake smashed in their face. Therefore, whoever ended up with more money in their container got cake in the face. I would strongly suggest you reconsider doing this. Without the couple peeking before the Cake Cutting Ceremony, guests “bet” on who’s going to smash cake in the others face. So, throughout the dinner the couple canvas the guests for their “bet”. Therefore, whoever ended up with more money in their container got cake in the face. I would strongly suggest you reconsider doing this. The couple decide together, that, instead
