Thrill Ride Celebration: Fall Wedding at Six Flags New England

by Megan

This fall I had the great opportunity to officiate a wedding at Six Flags New England. Laurie and Matt were such an awesome couple to work with. They were fun and irreverent, and wanted their wedding to celebrate who they really are. That meant no stuffy banquet halls and tuxedos.
