The Reception

After dinner, guests turned their attention to the band, New York City's The Second Step. They are a powerhouse of hefty funk, wailing soul, screaming horns, and great, memorable tunes, says Margery, whose friend is one of the lead singers and horn players. The night became a blur the more everyone spun around the dance floor. At the end of the evening, guests were sent home with packages containing replicas of The Declaration of Independence (with the real words), miniature Ben Franklin glasses, and favorite Philadelphia treats like Tastykakes, Liberty Bell chocolates, and pretzels. And Margery and Torsten enjoyed a quiet walk across the street to their honeymoon suite.
