Life and Everything: Wedding Pictures

Almost two months later, we finally got the disks with our wedding pictures on Friday. (As an aside, I love our mail guy. He gets lunch at my work everyday and hands me anything that looks important there. Must bake him cookies or something for a tip.)

Part of thing for the photographer we chose (the lovely and wonderful Erin Hession) is the fact that we get a copy of every picture they take complete with digital rights. All 2500 of them. A lot of those are repeats, but that's still a lot of pictures. Here's a small selection* of my favorites.

Both the ceremony and the reception were held and Oak Hill Mansion in Carmel. The reception in was in the ballroom and the ceremony was in the gazebo out back. We had amazing luck with the weather, too. We were hoping for the outdoor ceremony, though we had a rain plan. 70's and sunny. The very next day it dropped to the 50's and rain and didn't stop for almost a week.

My garter, which I made myself and am very proud of. I wasn't going to have one, but Dustin said he wanted to do the toss, so I said ok, promptly decided that the ones for sale were both too uncomfortable and too expensive, and made my own.

The staircase was perfect for pictures. Looking down is always a better angle than straight on.

He looked damn fine in that tux

and the photographer caught the ring bearer being bored with the whole thing. Apparently Sarah wound up having to bribe him to be good.

Meghann had some awesome shoes

and Quintin didn't really want to have his picture taken. His girlfriend, Celena, (who you can't really see in the picture) did my hair and did an amazing job. I need to come up with some sort of thank you gift before I see her again on Wednesday.
