At first Barry wanted to tie the knot with Anita at the old Odium theater because they had met there when they were both performing in a play put on by the local community actors’ group. But Anita had always fancied getting married at the Japanese Garden pavillon at the town’s park. She envisioned a ceremony under the stars with colorful Japanese lanterns and beautiful floral arrangements.
Barry ultimately acceded to Anita’s wishes without too much pushback. The fact that Anita’s parents were funding the whole wedding made the offer too lucrative for him to put up much of a fight.
