Who Doesn’t Enjoy a Good Garter Toss?Thursday, August 6th, 2009

2 - maybe 2 and a half guys are going for the garter

2 - maybe 2 and a half guys are going for the garter

The bouquet toss and the garter toss – tradition says whoever catches them will be the next to marry. Observe this photo – can you pick out the guys who really want to get married? And, if you are dating one of the other guys who are sort of just standing and observing – I think you need to have a talk with your man. There are some serious commitment issues going on.

As a photographer I am expecting lots of violence, mayhem, and hilarity in these garter tosses. Maybe next wedding they will attach football tickets to the garter – and then see how many scuffle to grab the garter…

Flower Petals Ready for the WeddingMonday, August 3rd, 2009

The flower petals and ring pillow before the wedding

The flower petals and ring pillow before the wedding

Who are the most stressed out people before the wedding? You may think it is the bride, maybe the groom, you might even think it is the the flower girls. (The answer is the bride’s mother). Flower girls have the important job however of scattering flower petals evenly and with the grace of a princess. It seems to be the dream job- without a paycheck.

But as I have photographed flower girls and some flower boys – they are professionals. Granted some forget to drop the flowers – other throw them like baseballs. Others do it in clumps – their job is often the most entertaining during the wedding procession.

And a few might make it a career. I always ask if this is their first time – and some react indignant because they have done this at least once or twice before. And in a way this is the flower girls chance to practice being a bride.
