Stephany and Daniel – 12.19.09

I’ve never had a wedding where it snowed a measurable amount. Ever. We’ve had flurries but nothing major. So when Saturday the 19th grew closer and the forecasts kept calling for snow, I knew we were in for some fun. I touched base with Stephany on Friday to 1. ease any fears that we may not be there and 2. tell her to bring boots. We were going outside (because I’ve never been able to do that with a bride and groom). So Saturday morning rolls around and it is snowing so much. But it’s the pretty kind of snow, where everything is sticking to the trees. You know, the general winter wonderland look. My husband (also my second shooter for the day) was bouncing off the walls because he LOVES driving the 4-wheel drive in the snow. When it was time to pack up and leave, I was apprehensive about our trip and he was excited. :) Anyhow, we arrived at the church safely but before the plows did (which was interesting). The snow had thrown a wrench into some things for Stephany and Dan. The limo that they had rented cancelled due to the conditions. Thank goodness Dan had thought ahead and rented a Hummer for their transportation. As guests started arriving, the girls weren’t to the church yet. They arrived about 15 minutes before the start of the ceremony. So we didn’t get our normal amount of getting ready shots but I think we made up for that with what we made them do AFTER the ceremony. By the time the ceremony and church formals were over, the wind had started to pick up so now the snow was blowing sideways. Temp was around 25 degrees. But Stephany had taken my advice to bring boots (UGG boots no less) and a nice jacket so outside we went! Stephany and Dan were so amazing in the snow! Not only did Stephany NOT wear her jacket but they were willing to trudge through snowbanks for me. We didn’t spend too much time outside though because it was so cold. And getting to Visaggios was a welcome warmth! And I should mention the guests for this wedding. Not only did the majority of them show up, but most of them stayed right until the end. And out into the blizzard we all went together.

Thank you to Stephany and Dan for being my “coolest” couple ever! ;)

All night long, Andy and I kept getting pics of the guests going to look out the doors. The snow was literally horizontal all night long because of our location.
