Can I tell you how amazing the people were at this wedding? My Mom, Adrene, and I had never met Peter or Danielle before the big day, but I knew they were going to be a wonderful couple after speaking with them on the phone. As soon as we walked in, Peter the groom, rushed over and gave us both giant hugs. “I’m so glad you’re here!” he said. Instant adrenaline rush. We turned around and were greeted by Peter and Doug, the innkeepers of the Benn Conger Inn with two more welcoming and warm hugs. Honestly, I’m not a big hug giver because I never think to portray my emotions in such a way, but what a great feeling! I need to hug more often! Of course, after a whirl wind of emotions and a fantastic event, we left the inn with new friends and you guessed it, several more goodbye hugs.

So enjoy the show then go hug somebody….you’ll make their day!
