Today Jenn and I went to the go-to con social location the St. James Legion to celebrate the union of fellow Klingon Robert Collett and Lorna Fink.

It was a low key affair. The wedding started at 12:30 with the bride, looking stunning in a white and red dress, walking down the aisle. I admit that the joyous tears of the bride as she walked towards her intended may have set off a few tears of my own. Vows were exchanged and the happy couple walked arm in arm up the aisle a half hour later.  

We had about six hours to kill in between so Jenn and your humble reporter returned home to eat and take a nap.

We returned to the dance at about 7:00pm where the festivities were just beginning. The dance was being MC'ed by Philip Grodecki. The newly minted couple took to the dance floor to usher in the evening. Unfortunately Lorna's father was unable to make the wedding so, where the father and bride would have danced, Lorna took to the floor with Walter, their adorable and incredibly well behaved infant son. Heart strings were tugged. 

Just before hitting the photobooth I was surprised to hear the first bars of The Time Warp, a convention dance staple, start up. Traditionally the song is played at midnight so it coming on at 7:50 threw a few people off. Of course, in true Pavlovian form, the challenge was met and the floor was quickly filled. 

After that we got our photo taken and joined in a con-goer group photo.

We mingled for a time before slipping out.  

Of course Jenn and I wish Robert and Lorna all the best.
