COTTON CANDY, CONVERSE SNEAKERS, CONFETTI, SCRABBLE, POPCORN, CHEESECAKE, FLIP-FLOPS, FIELDS OF GRASS and PLENTY OF SUNSHINE...someone could seriously write a song about this wedding. It was amazingly fun and full of surprises. Shawn and Ross did some serious planning to make sure that the day was just perfect for their guests. They even provided lemonade for their guests during the outdoor ceremony, a simple, yet surprisingly nice gesture on a warm day. There were also a few surprises for the bride and groom...like the redneck limo (a beat up old pick-up truck with antlers on the grill, cans streaming from the bumper and old lawn chairs duct taped to the bed...oh, and streamers, can't forget the streamers) that showed up instead of the stretch Ford Excursion they had ordered. A hilarious joke put on by the parents of the bride and groom after much discussion as to whether a limo was even a necessity for the day. Of course, the real limo then showed up shortly thereafter to take this couple to a reception filled with popcorn centerpieces and cotton candy on a stick. Talk about memorable. I doubt anyone who attended will soon forget this wedding! Shawn and Ross, thank you so much for all your time, your good humor, your wonderful smiles. I thought it was so perfect when we were out strolling through the fields and the two of you were chatting and laughing...I think I asked you to get a little closer to each other, and when you didn't respond, I noticed that you had forgotten I was there... perfect. That totally made me smile inside and reminded me that I was asked to be a part of something so special. A couple so in love, just minutes before their marriage ceremony...to be united forever in love. I hated to interrupt that moment, but when I finally did, (cause I didn't want us to run late) you laughed and said, 'Oh, yeah, we're taking pictures!' LOVE IT! I have soo many favorite images from this wedding...so take a peek at the wedding website I created for them at www.lisaorsi.printroom.com/053009
