The Commitment Ceremony of
laurel a. ripple
&
benjamin c. yager
September 17, 2005
Amherst, Massachusetts
We did it! Laurel & Ben were legally married in a
very small, private wedding ceremony on Friday, April 29, 2005 at the Colorado National
Monument. Now it's time to celebrate with everyone we love, at a larger commitment ceremony this fall! To
honor our creation of a new family, we will be joining under a new name, the Hara family.
You are invited to spend September
17, 2005 in Amherst, Massachusetts celebrating our lifetime commitment with joyful family and friends. Our commitment
ceremony will take place at 11am at the New England Peace Pagoda. Immediately following the ceremony, we will celebrate with a luncheon feast of food and fellowship at
a local restaurant in Amherst. And wait--we're not done yet! Let the joy continue into the night as we travel
2 hours north to Henniker, New Hampshire, where we'll continue our evening of friends, family, love and celebration,
at the home of Martha Yager, Ben's mother.
We are aware that gifting us with your presence in Western Massachusetts
will require travel for many of you. For those unable to attend, a
reception will also be held in Miami, Florida later in the fall.
