Can I just say again that I love having the formals out of the way before the ceremony starts?! It makes for such a relaxed day for the bride and groom and the photographers too!
Ryan and Charlene had their ceremony in the grand foyer because of the drizzly windy weather... it was pretty dramatic. Melissa got this nice shot.
...and this was my angle.
After the ceremony Charlene traded in her veil for a cute little flower/feather in her hair. I took this impromptu portrait in the bridal suite. Charlene looks so pretty.
Then I had a brainstorm about posing the girls on the fireplace. Ryan owns a lighting company (RC Uplighting) so I thought it would be fun to highlight his handywork. BTW he set up all the lighting in the ballroom the morning of the wedding!
A few fun details... the cake. Simple and Delicious!
Initials that hung on the back of Charlene and Ryan's chairs.
Tall centerpieces... Melissa's shot.
... and low... Melissa's too.
Another photo op outside in between the gusts of rain and wind.
Their first dance...
Pretty Romantical.
Some pink and green goodies for the guests...okay and maybe the photographers too!
Love this shot of the cake cutting- by Lisa.
Let the fun begin! Not only is Ryan handsome but he's got good dance moves too.
Charlene knows her way around the dance floor too.
Taking a break from all the dance activity. I asked R & C to sit for me under their fun lighting effect. They were so great all day indulging all my photo requests!
And the moment we have all been waiting for... Confetti Bombs! Melissa's shot.
... and mine- Woo-hoo!
The End!!!

Off to Jamaica... their plane left at 3am that morning- these guys have too much energy- but it was fun to be swept up in it for the day!
