Shannon + David 6.6.09

Shannon and David were married during an intimate outdoor ceremony at the groom's parents' private residence in Titusville, NJ. This was one of those rare weddings where I did not actually meet the couple until the day of the wedding. I try not to do that but for some reason, from my first conversations with Shannon, I had the feeling they would be a great couple and I was totally right! This bride and groom where extremely down to earth and relaxed and although their ceremony was pushed a half hour later (due to guests traveling via NJ transit and them experiencing delays) they both remained completely calm and collected. (they had no idea of some of the behind the scenes events)
Shannon was a DIY type of bride, she created her own escort cards, table numbers and centerpieces. Everything looked so pretty in white, pink and brown.


The behind the scenes was a bit too hectic; transportation delays, 125 chairs to be transfered from ceremony to reception area, we DJ'd via Ipod, recreated a wedding cake (which was forgotten by a friend of the bride), and so with an extensive list of unbeknowns to the couple, we accomplished what we were there to do -Shannon and David still had a great time with their friends and family...and so, I wasn't able to take too many pictures. Here are the few shots I was able to take.

Later at David's parent's front lawn, the tent set up.

The centerpieces and table numbers created by the bride.

I also would like to thank Ana (you'll all learn more about her soon) for a great job during this wedding and staying calm, strong and focused.
