Cheers to Patrick and Nick!

A few Saturdays ago, I hopped on an early train from Penn Station to D.C. to toast my friend Patrick and his husband Nick.

They married last fall but decided to wait until the spring to celebrate with their friends and families.
Patrick and Nick first dated when we were in college. They’ve been together through PhD programs, career changes, births of nieces and nephews, regional relocations and more. It was beautiful to see them exchange rings and affirm their commitment to each other. I couldn’t get a good photo, so here's a photo Patrick shared on Facebook when they married.
It was also great fun to get to see a number of my Duke classmates. Shout out to my hostess Caroline and our bride-to-be Angelina!
Patrick put together a fantastic weekend itinerary, complete with a delicious breakfast buffet on Sunday morning. The only thing that wasn’t flawless was the weather. Saturday was gorgeous, but a storm came in late that afternoon, so we didn’t get to make enough use of the Newseum’s fabulous outdoor terrace, with gorgeous Capitol views.
Nevertheless, I made Nate and Neil pose for a photo op!

Wishing these two smart, handsome men a lifetime of much happiness together. Cheers!
