Check out our weekly “Wedding Tips 101″ to learn more about wedding planning from our favorite planner Melissa at MasterPiece Weddings.
This is by far the best wedding we ever photographed. It starts of with rain on the way to the Thomas Center for pictures. No biggie, they will just move the ceremony indoors. As the guests are all seated and the music is about to start you hear a voice, “Emergency, everyone must exit the building!” You guested it, the fire alarm went off. Poor Doug, doing everything to make this the perfect wedding for Rachel almost gets arrested for arguing with the fire department about evacuating the building. Well it is only sprinkling, so everyone hurries out to Turtle Court to do a quick ceremony before the skies open up. We aren’t through yet. A groomsmen splits his pants wide open, the fire alarm goes off again during the reception, the stories go on and on… But what an awesome time and a terrific story. And we’ve got amazing pictures to tell the story.
Here are just a few pictures…
In case you missed the wall, we got it for you!
