A friend of mine from childhood, like a brother to me, got married for the first time at 61 years old, to another high school classmate of ours, AT FENWAY PARK!
Dave is a lifelong, die-hard Red Sox fan, who has had season tickets most of his adult life. He also owns his own very successful company.
I could go on for paragraphs and bore you all, but briefly, the 250 guests sat in the left field grandstand. The wedding party and ceremony was on the walkway between the grandstand seats and the box seats.
After the ceremony, the Scottish piper led the wedding party, then the guests, to the Pavilion Suite - a lavish function room in the park, with indoor and outdoor bars (open bar the WHOLE TIME), servers walking around with lobster rolls and Fenway Pigs in a Blanket, and a huge antipasto bar with prosciutto, salami, every cheese in the world, and other Italian snacks.
Then we sat down to a meal of salad, petit filet, and sea scallop.
Instead of a wedding cake, there was a big table of mini cupcakes, red velvet whoopee pies, pastries and who knows what else?
A DJ, plus Wally the Sox mascot, the three World Series trophies .... everything top shelf!
What an incredible experience!
