Submarine Capital of the World

Bubbles and newlyweds

My friends Mackie and Lauren were married yesterday in Groton, CT… the submarine capital of the world. No subs were spotted off the coast, despite the blessing of high visibility and blue skies. After reading their vows they walked the aisle and everyone blew bubbles. Unaccustomed to weddings, this blew my mind. It was so great to have the whole Yakaitis family together. This wedding was the closest my life has ever come to resembling a Godfather film. And I mean that in the best way possible.

Please visit my Facebook page for all the pictures taken of the Yakaitis clan. One thing you won’t see in any of my pictures… Tim splashing chocolate from the chocolate fountain onto Ruth’s cleavage and then motor-boating her, with Bull standing by, slightly shocked by his brother’s behavior. SOMETIMES lines get crossed at Yakaitis gatherings. Perhaps that’s one reason why I love hanging with them so much. I don’t want to give the wrong impression; the vibes at the wedding were way positive. I felt like I was ten years old again at the neighborhood block party.

And I danced all night.

  1. AW! So nice. Now Mr. Ray has a sister and the Yak’s have spawned a girl-child.
