DIY Ceremonies! Colleen and Robb, Oyster Bay. 24th Sept.

So today provided another first for me, which is pretty rare now that I’ve shot almost 200 weddings.

Colleen and Robb’s day job is organizing and hosting weddings at Mt Washington, and today was their own personal ‘Big Day’. But In a case of cruel irony their marriage commissioner (who shall rename nameless) forgot to show for their ceremony.

As you can imagine people were not happy! But the hero of the day was their personal friend Dave Hampshire who is also the resident DJ as Mt Washington. He located their personal vows and performed the ceremony for them. And a very fine job he did too. Dave pulled triple duty yesterday, DJ, MC, and their ‘Marriage Commissioner’

We had typically B.C weather, i.e. pouring rain all day, but that didn’t dampen the spirits for a quick beach shoot.

Comments most welcome below and keep an eye on my clients page for the rest of their images.
