There's something so satisfying about blogging a wedding... it may not be so impressive to everyone, but when I look at this I see hours and hours of time spent. Talking, travelling, photographing, editing, organizing, perfecting. It's a huge accomplishment!
Anyways, on with things...
David and I have been friends for a very long time. We met in college and remained friends even after. We would get together often with our friend Alicia as well to add to our list of craziness. So many good memories. Things change so much when friends start getting married and having babies. The three of us have all walked down that road now and things definitely are different. But still good. It is such a special thing to see good friends make the commitment of marriage and I was honored to not only attend but memorialize their day through photos.
I'll never forget the best man's speech. And I don't remember many... ok, well probably none. But this one, I did. Now, to understand the context, David studies birds, I believe that is called an ornithologist... someone correct me if I'm wrong! And Erin is an etymologist (she studies bugs!) So here it is: "David and Erin are perfect for each other and here's why: David was searching the world for beautiful birds and he found Erin. And Erin was searching the world looking for bugs and found David." Oh, it was a good one ;)
We started out at the house Erin's family stayed at in Kennebunk, Maine. It was such a fantastic view, but the truth is, there weren't many places around that weren't! What a great place for a September wedding. That time of year? Perfect. Absolutely perfect.
