Our wedding day started out like many others, beautiful blue skies, and temperatures in the 60's. I was going to marry the man I love at a gorgeous venue with all of our friends and family around to celebrate with us.I was a little surprised that my limo driver was late,but I thought, what the heck, we were hours away from the ceremony and still had plenty of time.
As we arrived at the hotel, I was again surprised to find out that the hotel had given me the wrong room and my room was not ready yet. So there I sat in the lobby waiting for my room to be ready. I was beginning to become a bit worried about things when suddenly a big ray of sunshine swept through the lobby. It was my photographer, Tom and his assistant, Kendra. I was a little bit surprised to see them as they were not supposed to be there for another 45 minutes. They sat with me and chatted and Tom even went to the front desk to see if he could speed them up with getting my room ready.
Little did I know that this was only the beginning of the sunshine. Kendra was soo sweet and helped soothe my concerns about the limo and room mix up. We went up to my room and they proceeded to do beautiful and creative pictures of my dress and accessories and when my girls arrived the fun really started. Kendra took pictures of the girls helping me into my dress and then we took tons of pictures of me with all of the girls and with each one of the girls seperately. The poses were fun and spontaneous and we all had a great time. While Kendra was with me, Tom went to Sergio's room and did some fabelous shots of Serge and the boys. Everything from traditional to way out there with a little bit of "Scarface" thrown in.
The Ceremony: What coverage!! They covered every angle, close up and far away and they're use of special effects was unbeleiveable. None of that cheesy stuff, really creative beautiful effects that blew our minds. With all that, we never even knew they were there.
After the ceremony we had a cocktail hour. Tom and Kendra took us to the beach for post ceremony photos. It was so much fun we want to do it again. Serge and I ran on the beach like two little kids. The shots with the bridal party were a bit over the top but the result was incredible. Have Fun, Get Crazy, Go Go Go!!!!!
Ahh!! The Reception --- Here we are outside our reception room. Our coordinator is having a problem with the way we are lining up. Tom talks to her and - Bang -!!!! We come in to a crowd that loves us!!!!
I have to stop now ---- Wow !! ---- Thanks Tom & Kendra ---- Maria & Serge
