Our plan was simple. My wife came to the marriage with two sons, so it made sense to get married on Mother’s Day. All of the suppliers were booked and hold-the-date invites were sent to our guests. And then the century-old venue we had selected called to say that they had made a booking error, having forgotten about their 120 year tradition of serving a double luncheon for their members on Mother’s Day.
That is how my wife and I came to be making the two-and-a-half hour drive from Toronto to Owen Sound to celebrate our first wedding anniversary the weekend before Mother’s Day.
