Sometimes you meet someone and you are almost instant friends…such was the story with Carly and me. Suffice to say the two of us have shared, ahem, a **few** bottles of wine together over the past year. Which meant that I was doubly excited for her wedding, because as her photographers and as her friend I knew that this was a day Carly has dreamt of since she was a little tiny girl. And I also knew that Will is absolutely head-over-heels for this girl and that he was equally excited to begin their married life together.
As is to be expected when you are working with two people who are as nice as these two (and as in love as these two) I wasn’t the only one who had been anticipating this day. Will and Carly were surrounded by friends and family who were so excited and happy for this union. When I say there was hardly a dry eye in the Cathedral (which was full. Full. As in, there was hardly an empty seat. Do you know how big that church is?!?) I literally mean almost everyone shed at least a little tear. Including Father Marc Lenneman (I think you get bonus points if you can make your priest tear up at your wedding, yes?:).
So from the beginning hours of getting ready at her cousin Carmen’s beautiful house (with tons of yummy food and lots of laughter), to Carly’s dad seeing her for the first time (he cried, Carly cried, her mom cried, I cried. Yep. Me crying. Shocking, I know;), to the pictures and ceremony at the Cathedral (I’ll never get tired of shooting at that church!), to the way the rain stopped and the ugly gray clouds rolled away for our outdoor pictures (as if on cue, ahhhhhmazing!), to the vintage baby blue Chrysler getaway car, to the stunning reception at the Civic Center (the details, ack! the details!). The whole day pretty much went like this: happy people, lots of hugs & laughter, more laughter, more hugs, and many many happy tears. It was a truly beautiful day – in every sense of the word.
Will and Carly, honestly, it was such an honor. We wish you guys blessings and blessings and blessings.
