avoiding the rain! 
the beautiful wedding party. 
moments before the ceremony started i turned around to see them all crying.
what on earth did you say john? ;)
the priest asked them to turn around & see who was there to support them as they started their lives together. love this moment. 
yum.
yummier.
i feel like this one is so regal... 
      when i saw these bushes... 
i couldn't help envisioning all of their heads popping out from behind :)
first dance. 
& then the dancing began. 
so these might have been the most hilarious bouquet & garter tosses i've ever seen.
chelsea over shot the ladies (she didn't know her strength!). & a lil scrambling ensued. 

 
while john flung it in the wrong direction & two gentlemen dove & wrestled for it. 
so i thought this picture was appropriate! 
the night is over & everyone has to go home, but there's still time for one more kiss. 
what a great night.
seriously.
i wish you two the happiest of futures.
