“shine”
Lynda & Mike’s 15 hour wedding extravaganza was a day they will never forget. Complete with 3 ceremonies and over 450 guests, they celebrated their marriage big time!!!! From behind the lens, I witnessed countless memorable moments, but the moment I will always remember is during the reception dinner, Mike was making a toast to his beautiful bride and shouted “I only have two words to say – I SCORED!!!!” Hahha…yes you did Mike! =)
*Lynda & Mike – I can’t thank you enough for having me a part of such a special day for you. You are so sweet and thoughtful – even making sure I was ok on your busy wedding day! I guess I scored! =) You are a beautiful couple inside & out and I’m sure you are looking even better with your golden tans from St. Lucia =).

We ventured to a nearby park for some portraits and group shots. I highly recommend taking an hour out of the day to do this. Soooo worth it!
Ok isn’t Lynda just stunning?!
What a beautiful couple!
And a beautiful bouquet!
Seriously one of my favorite shots of the day. I couldn’t stop laughing. These guys crack me up.
I know jumping shots have become very common, but I just LOVE them. Everyone always enjoys them and gets really into it. Check out how high the flower girl got and how her dress looks like a bell! LOVE it!
We move on to the reception at Seafood Paracel Restaurant:
Oh how chocolate fondue and alcohol makes people sooo happy =)
One of my favorite shots the whole day! Lynda’s lovely sister was VERY happy to catch the bouquet =)
The first dance – I love how they were surrounded by everyone!
