We're a Club Now – David and Jackie's Wedding

Posted on July 29, 2009

David was calm and cool as he and the guys got ready for the big day. They laughed and talked and helped each other with cuff links. No jitters here. David was certain that Jackie was everything he had ever wanted. He had known that since high school. While he was getting ready, someone walked in and placed something in his hand. “This is from Jackie,” she said. He opened his hand to reveal a grape soda cap and he just smiled as he pinned it on his lapel. I didn’t grasp the pin’s signifigance until a week or so later when I went to see Pixar’s Up, in which Ellie gives Carl a grape soda pin and says [something to the effect of], “We’re a club now, you and me.” And I thought that brilliantly captured the essence of marriage.

David and Jackie, congratulations on your marriage and thank you so much for letting me be a part of your journey! I can’t wait to see all that is in store for the two of you!
