I realized a few things looking through my files recently:
- I never shared this beautiful wedding
- I survived 2 major storms in 2012 wedding season (the Derecho in June and Hurricane Sandy in October)
- I love working with sisters from the same family.

A few years earlier, I had coordinate the bride’s sister’s wedding here in Arlington, Virginia. When it was younger sister’s turn, the family called me again. Even though the wedding was in Westchester County, NY, I was more than happy to obliged. The wedding reception was being held at Blue Hill at Stone Barns, near Tarrytown, NY with its amazing on-site restaurant and its sister restaurant in Manhattan. Being situated on a farm, the menu was highly seasonal which also meant that we did not what would be on the wedding menu until a week or two before the wedding.
As the wedding date approached, Hurricane Sandy was also approaching fast. Everything turned out fine for the wedding itself but I recalled the drive home from NY to DC was treacherous as the rain began to pour. Eventually, I find out the the bride and groom had evacuated their apartment in Hoboken, NJ due to the hurricane. All in all, it was a wonderful weekend, followed by a sweet note from Mom. — Vicky
