Picture Perfect!

Ryan & Katrina - January 9, 2010

2010 is beginning to look like a awesome year. I didn't start off the new year with just one great wedding, but two!

If I had to describe Ryan & Katrina's wedding day it would be simple yet elegant. Nothing too extravagant or outlandish, which in my humble opinion is the better way to go. Who needs the added stress of planning a big wedding, am I right? That being said Our Lady of Peace is one of the ideal churches to have a wedding ceremony (which is where they had theirs, fyi). It's not terribly big and it has beautiful architecture. The ceremony was just beautiful and I saw something that I haven't seen in a long time. As they emerged from the church, they released two white doves that flew into the wild blue yonder. There's just something romantic about it that I can't put into words. I don't know why more couples don't do it.

The real fun began after the ceremony. We headed down to the downtown post office to take some bridal photos. I bet some of you are thinking, the post office? Really? Forget the fact that it's a post office and you have a place with terrific architecture for some beautiful photos. The bridal party was terrific. The bridal party was really fun and energetic, everything a photographer can ask for. They were up to do anything to get the perfect shot.

Their reception held a couple surprises, for me at least. Usually the guy is the one who serenades the girl, but it was Katrina who did the serenading. Her performance was very beautiful heartwarming. The other surprise was their reenactment of Dirty Dancing. You can tell they put a lot of hard work into it and it showed in their performance. You had to see it. I just hope one of their relative had a camcorder and will post it on youtube. All in all it was a beautiful end to the perfect day. Congratulations you two!
