Brian + Lori

You might remember Lori and Brian, from just over a week ago. They just had their engagement session, and now their wedding. People thought my husband and I were crazy to plan our wedding in 4 months... well Lori and Brian planned their wedding in just over a month! Amazing!
They had their ceremony and reception at Celebrations at the Bay.  It certainly proved to be an interesting day... because the weather was just not cooperating, but it truly turned out to be a Beautiful wedding even if plans had to change. Lori and Brian now live on a boat, and for the wedding, all of the guys planned to come by boat, Lori and Brian were to have an outdoor ceremony/reception, and then Lori and Brian were going to leave by boat. So, needless to say, they were unable to do this because of the rain and the crazy wind! 
Here are the ladies toasting to Lori's Wedding Day!
Her friend Amanda... with some of the sweetest words. I had to try not to choke up. 
Flowers by the wonderful ladies at Crimson and Clover Designs.






Lori and her gals saying a few prayers before the ceremony... This is Lori and her mom.
Lori and her mom again...


Lori taking a peek at the ceremony set up!
We were able to take a few photos outside, under the safety of an overhang... and with the building blocking the wind!  :)
Lori really did handle the weather and stressful circumstances well. She doesn't even look phased!
I did manage to get her outside for a few seconds... literally, just seconds... Here is the first pic....
and this is a pic about 2 seconds later. I love it!  We really could have gotten some amazing photos outside... but this was before the ceremony and it was a must that we kept Lori intact.  :)  She might have blown away in that wind!
And the guys... Here is Brian
And the rest of the guys. You can actually see the rain on Brian's suit.  They were troopers!

The worship at the ceremony was awesome! They sang a few of my favorite songs. The worship team and pastor were from Streetlite Church. I plan to check it out!

Such a sweet moment of the two of them worshipping together.



First Dance.


The young guys doing the worm!



I love the rain and the lights outside the tent in this photo!


We tried to go out in the elements again... for a few pics.  :)  We had about a minute. It was one wet, windy, and cold minute, but we grabbed a few shots!

Thanks Lori and Brian!! You guys had such a beautiful ceremony!

As always, simply gorgeous. Those few minutes outside were definitely worth those 2 shots! I LOVE the last one.
