c&p wedding, 8/8/08

So this was a second wedding for c&p, and they were blending their families. It was lovely. Relaxed, joyous, and well-thought-through, it was a privilege to be there to take pictures. C&P are both incredibly good-looking, so I couldn't STOP taking pictures of them. They dance together quite well, too.



C wanted to be alone when she got ready, so I arrived after all the fixing up was done. This was taken in their suite, which was amazing. There were carved elephants outside the bed and breakfast!


As part of her vows, C read this poem by e.e. cummings. I love it.


isn't she beautiful?


Her brother walked her down the aisle.


Under the arbor. The wedding was at Nassau Valley Vineyard, and I loved the light during the ceremony.


This is C's son and P's daughter sitting together during the ceremony.


One of my favorite bits was the part where the couple had all their children come forward and each parent proceeded to make a vow to love the other's children and raise them to the best of their ability. The whole family then participated in a sand ceremony, using each person working together to make something beautiful.


It was a very good kiss.




This exceptionally dapper young man is the nephew of the bride. He wore a completely awesome vintage three-piece suit as well as this amazing hat. It's good to see someone dress for a wedding.


The centerpieces included the corks the c&p have collected together.


First dance. Her skin really is that amazing. I didn't do anything to it.


The DJ had a bubble machine on his setup. I loved it! The kids did too, of course.


Last dance of the night.















It was a beautiful wedding, they were amazingly awesome people, and I look forward to dropping off the pictures so we can see you guys again.
