A new exhibit offers a 365-degree view of the sacred union.
Wedding plan can get turn into a bit of a burden. A few months in, and you’ve had it up to here with coordinating the flatware with the table linens.
If you happen to be in Boston this weekend, take a breather (back away from the wedding-planning binder!) and remember why you’re getting hitched in the first place with the opening of Peabody Essex Museum’s Wedded Bliss, the Marriage of Art and Ceremony.
