I’ll be adding a new set of wedding photos to the portfolio tomorrow, but I’ve been going through the images (provided by the fabulous Esther Ramsey!) and have come across a few that just cracked me up. They aren’t exactly “portfolio-worthy,” but they are too damn funny not to share!
This wedding, which took place in September, united my friends Danielle & Ben. Danielle is my “lil” in our college sorority, Chi Omega. Ben is a younger fraternity brother of my husband. So my husband and I go “way back” with this couple, and we had such a blast being involved in the planning and design of their wedding.
But all that aside, let’s look at the “outtakes,” shall we?
In real life, Ben is addicted to his blackberry. The tone of this photo is definitely mocking.
You’ve got to love bridesmaids who don’t take anything too seriously…
And a bride who is thrilled to pieces that she is finally wed!
Ever wonder what I look like after installing an event? Well, this is what I look like after installing an event all day and THEN putting a dress on my sweaty body. Just a tad disheveled. ;-)
We’ve all seen choreographed dances by the bride and groom- but this one was a show stopper! Danielle has danced all her life, while Ben… I honestly don’t know if I’ve EVER seen him dance. He’s not exactly the type of guy to get up in front of people and perform. This is evidence of true love if ever I saw it. Ben & Danielle did the “Dirty Dancing” choreography to “Time of My Life.” It was absolutely phenomenal!
Ben travels a lot for his work, and I heard that he would spend evenings prior to the wedding in his hotel room on the phone with Danielle, practicing his steps so he wouldn’t mess up.
Not only did he perform the dance perfectly, he did it with a smile on his face. I think every person in the room was stunned. There’s a grainy video posted here- not the greatest quality, but worth checking out!
Ah, cake smearing. So typical of this couple.
Last but not least, “you know it’s been a good wedding when _________________.” And the evening was far from finished!
