Allie + Jason 09.16.06

What are the chances of two couple who don't know each other picking the same ceremony location a day from each other, the same photographer, both having a sand ceremony, and selecting the same dj? I'm not sure, but it happened. However the similarites stopped there as each wedding was distinctively their own.

As Becky and I arrived Tuthill Park we found that it was only us and the florist. Lana had to be the most organized florist I've seen. Each and every corsage and boutenierre were individually wrapped and labeled with the pins ready to go, they were lovely too. A short while later Jason showed up and then Allie who surprised me with a bright vibrant color in her dress! They did the whole first site thing while thier friends and family watched on and were crying.

The formals were fun and the family and friends fully charged for the ceremony. Allie and Jason selected two officiants and it was nice. Some friends provided the music and did a wonderful job. It was a nice ceremony. After the ceremony we headed out in a hummer limo just dring around.

The colors on Allies dress was carried through the bridesmaids dress, programs, favors and much more. It was a lovely splash of color to continue to see through out the day.

I was finished before the dances, but got many images of the speeches the happy faces watching the slideshow and all of the guests. The details kept me busy.. one favorite was the rocks in the napkins. Each table had some sharpies so that guest could write messages on the rocks and drop them in a big vase. I bet these two are going to have fun reading all of them. I even did one.

Thank you for selecting us to photograph your day.
