Just wanted to share with you pictures from my sister's wedding. *sniffle*

Wow, I say this with all sincerity - I don't think I've ever seen such beautiful wedding pictures. How awesome - they look so happy together.

I like the tree one - I had "Brian and Caitlin sitting in a tree" stuck in my head while I looked at it.

I agree with Sil - these are really extraordinary wedding photographs. I'm in awe.

I love her dress, and your dress. And that orange dress. Love love love.

What beautiful pictures. You and your sister look very different from one another. The first dance picture is stunning.

So lovely! And you look absolutely gorgeous, Specks. Sister weddings are the best. I'm still mad at my one sister who eloped. *shakes fist*

They really are gorgeous pictures, aren't they? It was *such* an amazing day. The ceremony was moving and beautiful and thought-provoking and original, and the reception was gloriously fun. And them dancing together, my god!

Incidentally, my sister and I have different fathers, which is why we don't look alike. She and my brother look similar, but she and I are like chalk and cheese.

What a beautiful wedding and setting! Where was it held, Specklet (if you don't mind me asking)? Was the meal at the same place? It all looks so enchanting.

By the way, am I the only one who thought Specklet sprang forth, fully grown, from the head of Zeus?

My sister's been married six times, and I've never been a bridesmaid, not even at the first wedding when she had six bridesmaids - three little girls and three adults. And I'm her only sister.

/still sad about it.

These are beautiful! Hooray for weddings!

As an aside, every time I see wedding pictures I get a little sad: our photographer was a complete disaster.

It was outside of Madison, Wisconsin, Deborah. The setting could not have been more perfect. The ceremony was on a hilltop with the catalpa tree, dinner was served on a stone terrace under swags of billowing tarp and a sprinkling of lights, and down a gravel road and past a meadow (where my brother-in-law surprised my sister with fireworks!) was the open-air dancing pavillion.

Total fairy tale wedding.

On preview: poo on rotten sisters and poo on bad photographers.

Were those prayer flags? Just wondering.


Absolutely stunning photography, btw.

Lovely wedding, awesome photos. It's all downhill from here, of course, but at least they have the memories of that one perfect day ;-)

Not prayer flags, bunnyfire, just things to catch the guests' eye so they'd know where to wander...

Thanks for all your comments, guys!

Beautiful photos, and beautiful wedding.

Gorgeous pictures, gorgeous setting...congratulations to the happy couple!

essexjan, I understand. My brother was in both of my weddings (and his fiancee also in the second one) but I was not a part of their wedding party. And I'm his only sibling, and we have a good relationship. Sigh.

Absolutely gorgeous wedding and couple. Everything is stunningly beautiful.

Congrats to your sister, Specklet. Thanks for sharing this.
posted by LoriFLA 31 October | 20:49
Aww, lovely wedding, and you and your sister looked gorgeous in your beautiful dresses.

What a lovely day... we're not allowed to get married outdoors here in the UK, for some reason. No fair.

Not even on one's own property? My nursery school teacher was married in my back yard.


I can see the love from everyone involved in the pictures.

Especially not there, brujita - it has to be a 'registered premises'. I think there are ways of registering structures that are nearly outdoors, but it's quite a process to get registered, and in practice only hotels and stately buildings (as well as churches which are registered by default) do it.

Beautiful photos, Specklet. Thanks for posting them. *tears up a bit*

Y'all scrub up real purty.
