Our location spoke to us on a number of levels: first, it's not a banquet hall or other pre-packaged venue. Of course this means some resulting creativity, short cuts and compromises as far as any traditional wedding day expectations. We started out like a pair of rebellious teens, not wanting to do much traditionally. Meanwhile, it turns out some rituals are there for a -helpful- reason and we've embraced them. So expect a mix of what's customary and have fun rolling with the rest. You'll see.
What the location has that we love are its two block walk from home, it's beautiful, and listed in the National Register of Historic Places to boot. The Third Street Alliance for Women and Children is the only social service program in the United States operating in a historically preserved house. Like many non-profits it struggles with limited resources and so, last but not least, celebrating there is our way of giving a little back to Easton, which has given us so much.
Their centennial anniversary takes place the same week as our own celebration. For 100 years, Third Street has opened its doors and arms for women and children in need.
