WEDDING MIAMI-STYLE

   When we we received a wedding invitation from our artist friends, Sarah Newberry and Emmett Moore, we knew we were in for an ingenious affair.          

 


      Two hundred of us gathered at the historic Scottish Rite Masonic Temple where I was hoping we would be required to don fezzes. I love wearing hats but fez-less, we took our seats in the temple's fortress-like auditorium. A few minutes later Emmett's lovely bride waltzed up the aisle with her dad to the tunes of Procol Harum and Townes Van Zandt. 
 
     That was it. After the ceremony and their new status was announced, the happy newlyweds walked out under a "This Is It" sign.They were met with a profusion of smoke bombs. 
None of this "throwing rice" for them!




    Through the sulfurous haze they made their way to the nearby Miami River. Fortunately, Ernest Hemingway's fishing boat, "Pilar", was there to whisk them away.What could be more Miami than that?
