Our push eastward the past few weeks has been focused on attending the wedding of Megan Wells and Alex Ross. Megan is the daughter of Rich and Janet Wells, our long-time Sequent friends from Boston. We felt fortunate that the wedding aligned with the general plan for our trip. We parked the trailer in Newport in front of a house that Rich and Janet rented for the wedding weekend. Other Sequent friends staying at the house included Gene and Shar Austin from Texas, and Colin and Diane Bailey from Boston. We also enjoyed meeting the groom's parents, Micky and Cheryl, and old friends of the Wells’, Mimi and Ken Walters from Florida. We were also able to spend quality time with the Campbells (Wade and Kathy) and McClurgs (Mike and Heather), more great Sequent friends from Arizona and Boston.Rich and Janet through a party and bbq at the house on Friday night for all the out of town guests. Beth and Steve Levich (another set of Sequent friends), as well as many of their neighbors from Beaverton attended. I think we made it to bed by 1:00 AM that night.
Megan's and Alex’s wedding was held at Glen Manor, a mansion on the north end of Newport. The ceremony was held outside on a lush lawn surrounded by English gardens. It was elegant and one of the most stunning settings for a wedding we have ever witnessed. The Wells put on a beautiful affair with appetizers, wedding toasts, a white tablecloth sit-down dinner, and dancing. We visited with friends after the wedding at the Viking Inn before closing the evening at the house around 1 AM again. We wish Megan and Alex a lifetime of happieness, and the good fortune to enjoy great friendships like those we enjoy with the old Sequent gang!
