wedding

Part of our family summer property gets rented out for weddings a couple of times a year to help pay the taxes. Today's wedding is a lesbian couple. My daughter and I watched a little of it from our upstairs window and it was impressive to hear the person officiating say: "By the powers invested in me by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, I now pronounce you wed." I've been away from that world long enough that I wondered what they would wear--it turned out to be more-or-less matching dresses, one in pale pink and one in pale blue. In the picture below one bride is behind the other, and one of their friends is speaking.
