I’m been procrastinating about blogging this wedding since I don’t know where to start. There was so much going on – the glamour, the dress, the decor, not to mention the kindess of the bride and groom – all over the top and wonderful. It was truly an honor to photograph this wedding and to work with these families.
I guess I’ll just start at the beginning! There was this marvelous retro “rat pack” vibe at the wedding. You almost felt like you were at the wedding of Elvis Presley and Lisa Marie, or Frank Sinatra, or something…. I couldn’t put my finger on it, but check it out.
now, what’s going on with the groomsmen during all this loveliness? Well, the rat pack is clowning around on the other side of the shrubs! A big thankyou to my fabulous second shooter, Leah Latham, for this wonderful image! I Love it Leah!
and a teaser of the amazing room decor to come from John Orton at http://johnortonevents.com/ and Richard Carbotti from http://perfectsurroundingsinc.com It was simply amazing. This is just the beautiful Belle Mer Ballroom set up for the ceremony. During the cocktail hour, it will be transformed into a shimmering white nightclub with white leather settees befitting a soiree attended by Frank.
and if that isn’t enough for today, how about an all group shot!
