Carol Merletti

So I heard there's a football game this weekend...

I've even heard it's a pretty important game, a real big deal. One of those "Bowl" football games. Oh, and the New England Patriots are playing. Cool! All this talk of the New England Patriots reminded me of a wedding Photo and Video by Joe Goldsberry filmed a couple of years ago. Trying to explain it in print just won't do it any justice, so please have a look at this short clip from the wedding of Stephanie and Dan...

I am happy to report, Stefanie and Dan are still happily married. I'm not sure what Dan's plans are for this weekend, but I do know what Stefanie is doing.

The officiant in this clip is actually the bride's aunt, Carol Merletti, of Wedding of Your Desire. Carol is a Massachusetts Justice of the Peace who has been performing weddings since being appointed in 2004. She doesn't just perform ceremonies concerning the Patriots. Out of over 650 weddings, Carol has performed 22 wedding ceremonies at Fenway Park. I also don't mind sharing a wonderful fact about Carol, she performs ceremonies for any active duty military personnel at no charge.

Be sure to share this post with your favorite Patriots fan (or a Giants fan who you don't really care for). And click "like" if you're rooting for the Patriots. I am sure you will agree, Stefanie really captures the true spirit of the upcoming game!
