So it finally happened!! I had the pleasure of shooting a “Destination Wedding” in Puerto Vallarta, at the Riu Vallarta.
The resort was terrific and it was great fun to get to know so many new people and to catch up with those I have known for years. Aiden the bride got us all set up in a group on WhatsApp so we could all communicate and plan dinners and excursions with ease. Kept us all in the loop and allowed us all to pick and chose when to participate and when chill alone.
The Groomsmen and the Groom were dressed for the weather as it was Mexico hot!! But then of course what wedding in beach country is not on the hot side?
Not to be out done the ladies were also dressed for the weather in identical dresses of different colours and look FABULOUS!!
Oh yes and another first for me was shooting a wedding party that included a Bridesman…..Brian was that man and from what I saw on the wedding day he was the guy that got things done for the ladies…everything from steaming wrinkles out of the Bridesmaid’s dresses to fetch beers for us all during the after ceremony photos.
Few Brides I have had the pleasure of shooting have shown this kind of Joy while reciting their vows! Of course there were also a few seconds of faltering words and almost tears as well which is a common thing at such a huge moment in one’s life.
