Putting on the dress... and not messing up the hair = talent

OK... so as I heard it... a groomsmen had to give a quick reminder to the couple to kiss... we're so glad that part didn't get skipped :)
One the best moments of any wedding and this was a great one
Being whisked away around the outside of the sanctuary and alone (almost) for the first time as husband and wife
A quick portrait...
Heading for the bus to join the wedding party
We made a quick stop on the way to the party to take a couple of group portraits with the wedding party

This was the last five minutes of daylight and we squeezed out two portraits on the steps of The Old Red Courthouse
