On Saturday afternoon I met Mike & Beth. I’m always a little nervous going into a wedding where I’ve never actually met the bride and groom, but everyone was very welcoming and both families had a great time. It was the first wedding for both sets of parents and Mike & Beth set the bar high for their younger siblings!
I arrived at Beth’s parents’ house just as their dog, Cookie, was being brought back home after running away into the street to eat a dead squirrel. As far as I could see, that was really the only thing that went wrong all day!!
She wasn’t the only cookie around… Beth’s mom made sure everyone had sufficient snacks!
I also took the opportunity to take a picture of Beth’s shoes, which I thought were really pretty in a simple way.
The ceremony took place at St. Benedict’s and the girl who sang “Ave Maria” was wonderful!
After the service, it was a race against the weather to get pictures at the church and at Glen Falls before the rain started, but everyone was organized and cooperative and we got a lot of great shots!
We went over to Marinaccio’s for the reception and the party started. Mike’s brother George has a band that played the music and they are great! I’m sorry that I didn’t get the name or I’d give you guys a plug because you were fantastic!
Thanks to both families for all your hospitality, and have a great time in Mexico you two!!
