ERIC DRACHMAN: Wife and Wife

Jamie and Marisa’s love is irresistible. It’s so sweet, Jamie worried it would sound saccharine, but it’s true and kind and generous. And it’s about to be celebrated by their "favorite dearest sweetests" at their wedding. Even a  few years ago, they wouldn’t have been able to legally marry each other, but today they are glowing with the anticipation of celebrating with family, friends, and even the state.

Special thanks to my brother, Evan Drachman, for the use of his beautiful cello recording of “Menuets - Bach Suite No. 1 In G Major” from his album, “Full Circle”!
