A Community Service Wedding

When I posted about Teampedia a couple weeks ago, the founder, Seth Marbin, e-mailed me to say thanks and to let me know about his [super-cool] wedding.

He and his partner, Jyothi, hosted a day of community service before their wedding. Ninety of their 130 guests volunteered at an organic farm that grows food for low-income families.

The couple met while working for City Year, a national volunteer organization, so the day of service with their guests seemed like the perfect way to share their values and build community.

Wow. What a truly memorable and meaningful idea!
