Jamie and Mike Make It Official

The reason for the lack of recent updates has been the planning and celebration of our recent wedding, followed by two remarkable honeymoons.

Our  wedding was a beautiful affair, a simple, heartfelt, spiritual ceremony presided over by the amiable Reverend Keith Gugliuzza, and attended by 45 of Jamie’s and my closest friends and family.
Future posts will feature some fairly exotic locales, however, I wanted to compliment my friends Paolo Catini and Alex Kola, respectively the Chef and Maitre d’ at Basso 56 for doing such a wonderful job for our wedding reception.

We can’t thank them enough for them and their capable staff’s creation of a memorable dining experience.
