Wedding Story: Jennifer and Allen

The rains and the winds kept coming that weekend... the plans might have changed several different times but the outcome was the same= a beautiful wedding and a fabulous celebration to follow! Jennifer and Allen got married at the Dolphin Ridge Club at Emerald Isle, NC. The rains and the winds prevented the ceremony from being on the beach, but everything still ended up being gorgeous.

Brothers getting ready together...

Jennifer always knows how to bring the sass :)

One of the only requests Jennifer had was to see Allen without

"seeing" him before the ceremony...

My second-shooter for the day, Jennifer (yes, two Jennifers one day), got the other shot that the bride Jennifer requested-- Allen's face when he lays eyes on her walking down the aisle. Great catch Jenn!

Choking back tears...

Everyone experienced happy tears!

After the ceremony there was a break in the rains so we changed

around the schedule a bit and ran to the beach to grab a few shots!

Adorable cupcakes instead of a cake :)

A precious interruption from the best man into the first dance.

The sorority sisters singing to Jennifer to celebrate her wedding day!

While the rains and winds begin to blow harder, the party turned up a notch...

Even a toddler can appreciate group dancing...

... and the bride and groom dominate the soul train.

Jennifer and Allen wanted to sneak outside and get some night shots-- YUMMY!!

In a shower of petals, Jennifer and Allen headed off to Raleigh to catch a plan just a few hours later to head off to their tropical honeymoon!

Jennifer and Allen: What a gorgeous day you had! Photographer Jennifer and I had the best time running around in the rain with you two and all your wonderful friends and family-- Hope the honeymoon afforded you plenty of sunshine on the beach :)
