It’s not every day that a Friends of Trees staff member is featured in the New York Times. And not every day that two newlyweds have such a compelling story to tell.

It’s also not every couple that races each other by bicycle after their wedding ceremony. Below is an excerpt from the story:

Afterward, the bride hiked up her cream-colored silk gown and jumped onto a bicycle, the bridegroom, in a Brooks Brothers suit, onto another, and they raced each other down a hill.

“He does everything big and has a big heart,” said Sam Schaffer, the best man. “If there’s anyone with a heart big enough to match his, it’s Sarah.”
