As most of you know, we kinda do a lot of weddings.\u00a0 I’m not sure that I’ve ever encountered\u00a0 a crowd that partied any harder than this group on Saturday at our Ft Myers wedding.\u00a0 We knew lots of the family, as we had shot the brother of our bride’s wedding a couple years ago, so it wasn’t a total shock :D.\u00a0\u00a0 To add to the drama, the remnants of Hurricane Rina were sending huge rain squalls over the area all way right up to the ceremony!\u00a0 So the day started out pretty much normal as we covered the getting ready for Carla and her crew at their hotel; then it was off to the church.\u00a0 A very nice church it was too, and all was going great until the priest gave us the bums rush to get out of there stating they had another wedding at 2:15….(um gee…why would you schedule another wedding 1:15 after the first wedding, knowing the ceremony was going to be almost an hour????).\u00a0 Time stamp on the images shows the ceremony ending at 2pm….we didnt even get to take the first formal shot until 2:13 as the guests had to file out of course;\u00a0 oh…….last formal shot was 2:27….so that means it took us a whopping 13 minutes to do all the formals \ud83d\ude00 \u00a0 Oh well, that just made it even more odd that he felt the need to say anything in the first place.\u00a0\u00a0 I just love it when their poor scheduling gets shoved onto the bride and groom to rush their big day…… Anyway, this is where it all started to get interesting as we all boarded what turned out to be the PARTY bus!\u00a0 Had to make a quick stop at a liquor store for more supplies, then off to Sanibel Island for some quick romantics, fun fun fun, and then it was back on the bus (plus another quick stop for beer) and back to the reception at the Harborside Event Center….whew!!\u00a0 Once we got settled and inside, Justin from The Entertainment Connection<\/a> took over and had the house rocking all the way till midnight!\u00a0 They even served a midnight buffet of sorts, complete with pancakes and bacon!\u00a0 All in all a very interesting evening\/weekend.\u00a0 See some of our favorite images by clicking>>
