Lucky in Love - 7/11

Thanks to our roving reporter Anne Roman, wife of Fieg cousin John Roman, for the following account of the wedding of her niece:


Jessica Roman (daughter of Mark Roman and Maureen Taylor) and Cory Cross were married on Friday evening, July 11, 2014 at the Top of the Bay, the newly renovated former officers’ club at the Aberdeen Proving Grounds, in Aberdeen, Maryland.   

Mark, who looked very handsome in his Marine dress blues, gave the bride away and in an e-mail message several days later said, "What an unbelievable moment...one I will NEVER forget..." 

The ceremony took place on the second floor  terrace overlooking the Chesapeake Bay.  The bride’s favorite colors, yellow and green, were worn by her bridesmaids and incorporated into the wedding decorations and flowers. 

The bride was beautiful (according to her Aunt Anne, she is incapable of taking a bad picture so the photos won't lie), wearing her grandmother Dorothy Roman's pearls with a strapless white lace gown. 

The weekend celebration began on Thursday evening with a rehearsal dinner crab feast hosted by the groom’s parents Kacy and Michael Cross at a restaurant in suburban Baltimore.  On Saturday afternoon, the day after the wedding party, the Cross family hosted a backyard barbecue for family and friends at their home.  

The happy couple spent their honeymoon in Jamaica.  They are back home and at work in Baltimore, but we are not sure if their feet have touched ground yet.  

Best wishes for life-long happiness go to the newly-weds from the entire Fieg clan!

P.S. Has anyone ever seen Noah Roman's eyebrows before?  Here they are:
