Rob and Colleen’s After Party

Lounging on the lawn.


One of the Jonas Brothers. Just kidding. I think this was one of Colleen’s cousins.

Mingling in the yard and on the deck.

Emily, Ging, Billy, Dallas and Phil playing frisbee game.

After Rob and Colleen’s wedding reception everyone headed back to Colleen’s parent’s house. The kids played out on the lawn all night, we drank the beer that Rob made, and there were lots of smores. I think this was the first wedding that featured frisbee game!

Billy, Ging, Killian, Liz, Dallas and I were all staying at the same hotel in Harpswell. When we got back we hit the free nacho bar and then ordered some late-night pizza from Papa John’s. Man, I hadn’t had Papa John’s for about a decade. It was good. We gorged on it while watching one of the Lord of the Rings movies.

At Colleen and Rob’s wedding reception, Keegan and Cael, two of Colleen’s nephews, were having the greatest time pretend fishing with their “fishing poles.” Could they look more classically New England?!?

Rob and Colleen’s Wedding Reception

After the wedding ceremony and some posed photos we all walked or took a ride in a golf cart down the road to a property that was rented for the wedding reception. We kept our wedding outfits on for an hour or so during a cocktail and hors d’oeuvres period, but after that we all changed, bride and groom included, into more casual clothing.

Rob has spent the last year learning how to brew beer. He had 9 pony kegs done in time for the wedding. Rob’s family owns a cranberry bog and he even had one cranberry beer. Of course there was also cranberry cheese and cranberry jams as giveaways.

I loved that the wedding reception was like a casual yard party, except with everyone you know invited. The waterfront was beautiful and we had fun visiting with everyone while enjoying Rob’s delicious concoctions.

Colleen & Rob

Colleen and Rob’s wedding ceremony was in Harpswell, Maine, on Colleen’s parent’s deck, overlooking the waterfront. It was quick and simple. Both Rob and Colleen gave a number of reasons they were marrying the other person, kiss, and they were pronounced. After the ceremony refreshments were poured and people mingled around a bit and visited.
