The new Mr. and Mrs. Blancato

Picture1

John flew up to Geneseo NY on Thursday Feb 15 and we were married on Saturday Feb 17 in the most wonderfully amazing venue surrounded by friends and family.  More on that later.   The following day we hit the road around 11:30 am and drove all the way through to Florida. We took turns driving and sleeping (except for Big Guy, he just slept the whole way) and arrived at the Elks Lodge RV park by 10:30 Monday morning.  I’ve settled in and feel right at home here.  I’m hooked up to the internet and working remotely until the end of March when I’ll be officially retired.

Below are some of our favorite pictures from the wedding which took place at the historical mansion called the Wadsworth Homestead.  Click here to see a video of the venue.  We had a short ceremony followed by a delicious dinner.  After dinner we played a great game with everyone and it was team Tiger for the win!  When we left the Wadsworth sometime later it had just started to snow – big fat flakes that came down slowly like the end of a Hollywood movie.  So perfect for a magical night.  Back at the hotel afterwards, a bunch of people decided to go bowling at the lanes right next to the hotel so we ended the night with some bowling fun.    Thank you to everyone that made the trip up to NY to share in the experience with us.  We feel like the luckiest couple in the world to have shared the day with the special people in our life.
