The couple stood before our Justice of the Peace, Mike Cherim, at a site they selected, Ripley Falls in Crawford Notch, ready to be married. Nobody was around because it was still early. Smart. The sounds of the thinning waters falling with a smack then cascading over the huge face of rock in the background were clearly audible. Otherwise it was quiet, still cool and bug-free, […]
Word of mouth is how Redline Guide and NH Justice of the Peace Mike Cherim got this particular wedding assignment — all the way down yonder in Auburn, NH. He married another couple, friends of this couple, and they liked Mike’s style, so to speak. He seemed so relaxed, confident, and happy. Positive vibes to spare. A lot of people ask Mike to marry them for […]
What’s two more hours is what the groom said to their officiant, our very own Redline Guide and New Hampshire Justice of the Peace, Mike Cherim: “What’s two more hours?” he asked, though it was a rhetorical question. The couple, Don and Donna, had waited twenty years for this day, so adding two more hours wasn’t going to be an event-crushing episode for them. The couple […]
Some mountains, like Mt Webster (3910′), require a little more effort to get to than others. Mt Willard across the street, for example, is easy by comparison. This brings into question the value of such effort. In other words, is the effort required to hike up taller mountains worth the extra everything that will be required? We think, yes. This hike-to wedding on Mt Webster (via […]
The wedding of Eric and Heather involved two days. The first was on May 14th, to do a self-organized rehearsal — which can sometimes be a really good idea if there are several moving parts and more people are involved. The second day, by far the most special of the two, being May 15th, was the day of their wedding service. Coincidentally it also happened to […]
Photos of the couple, if we post them, are done so with permission. This was not granted this time, which is fine, some opt for greater privacy during their wedding, but we still like to offer the newlyweds a hearty congratulations here on our blog and to wish them a happy life. And we also still enjoy posting some photos of the scene so our readers […]
First time that venue was chosen — Sabbaday Falls, just off the Kanc — the Florida couple asked for a nice coating of fresh snow. It had been a terrible year for snow, everything was brown, and it was very unlikely their request would be filled, but they absolutely got their wish. It was like a miracle. Several inches of fresh powder colored their wonderful white […]
Oscar and Emily — Married March, 13th, 2021 The couple asked if our NH Justice of the Peace Mike Cherim might be willing to officiate a wedding ceremony on skis. The answer came fast: Yes! That sounds great! The couple, Emily and Oscar (also known as Preston by some), after seeing another wedding video, also asked Mike to shoot some video of their wedding. He did, […]
Waterville Valley is like a Matryoshka doll set — you know, those Russian nesting dolls. We say that first because of its geography, a flat plain nestled between mountains which form the outermost shell, so to speak. Then within that is the Village itself and nestled within that is a quaint “Town Square” lined with shoppes. And then, at the very heart of it all, is […]
Dave and Karissa — Married March 3rd, 2021 A ski wedding… what a great idea! Due to some of their guests not having access to the summit, however, the couple chose a secluded spot in the woods above Wildcat Ski Area’s C-Lot for the actual ceremony. So, for the bride and groom, their day went something this: go skiing, stop to get married, then tailgate with […]
We always ask if we are allowed to take photos and/or video. Some folks prefer private events. Some don’t care one way or the other. Others still relish the blog posts we usually make. It’s always up to the couple. In this video Redline Guiding owner and NH Justice of the Peace Mike Cherim presides over the wedding of an awesome couple at the Crawford Depot […]
We mentioned Saco Lake as a venue having good wedding potential, particularly for the photographer, several times. With the upper outlook providing an opportunity to get the bird’s eye view of the wedding and, to the truly inspired, a possible in-lake view would also be cool — either using waders or a small craft like a kayak or canoe. For a while we have believed this, […]
