Bergman-Genge Nuptials Take Place May 23, 2000 Miss Amanda "Swannie" Bergman of New York, New Jersey and Sinister was wed last evening to Mr. Stephen Genge of Portsmouth, England and Sinister. The civil ceremony took place in East Brunswick, New Jersey, with Judge Toto officiating. A religious ceremony will be held this coming autumn. The bride wore a butter yellow coat over a black sheath and carried calla lilies. Her outfit was accessorized with a Dog on Wheels badge (worn rightside up) as a sentimental nod to the band which brought the couple together. Following the ceremony, the celebrants retired to a restaurant for dinner. Sinisterines in attendance included Ned (who originally introduced Amanda to the music of B+S and the Sinister list), Matthew, and this correspondent. Fluffy Sarah made a brief appearance at the nuptial dinner via mobile telephonic connection from Kingston, UK. Mr. and Mrs. Genge became acquainted several years ago on the Sinister mailing list and their love for the music of Belle and Sebastian blossomed into love for each other. The couple will reside in the metropolitan New York area while the bride completes her degree at NYU. Thanks to our own List Mummy and Yenta, Honey, who has made and maintains a place where things like this can happen. --chele +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ +---+ Brought to you by the undead Sinister mailing list +---+ To send to the list mail sinister@missprint.org.
