Big. Greek. Wedding.

That about sums up this day. It was packed with a lot of love, family, friends and a ton of tradition (oh yeah, and amazing homemade desserts!) If you’ve never been to a traditional Greek wedding, you’re missing out on something very meaningful. The bride and groom actually don’t really do anything or say anything. By just showing up they are pledging themselves to each other. I won’t go into everything – needless to say it was really an honor to see these two get married.

And then there’s the party. They know how to party. The dancing, singing – it’s a riot. And the DJ – I swear he sang half the songs along with the CD (in the mic). And he was good!

I was blessed to have the wonderful Jamie Swanson second shooting with me. She also did the fantastic photobooth (as you’ll see some of those images below).

Thanks for letting us be part of this day Rebecca and Kris. It was a blast!
