Wedding: Pre-ceremony

The moments (how short they were!) before we ran (walked briskly) into the church to be blessed by a priest (Epsicopal, not civil, if you've been keeping up):
This was fun. Somehow, in my rushed and mildly freaking out state, I got the task of pinning on Garrett's boutonniere. I've pinned on lots of boutonnieres at weddings where I was photographing, but never with the pressure of it being a few minutes until our ceremony, with a husband who dislikes all things sharp and pointy, and with an uncooperative pin (that was probably too short in retrospect. So yeah, I stabbed him. Can you believe that? No wonder he's afraid of needles! Luckily he did not bleed and does not have a nipple ring hole now. Very glad he wasn't in a white shirt.
I'm pretty sure Garrett hates most pictures of himself (unless he took it in a mirror with some ridiculous hat or sunglasses on, or, if he has a beard and hair that make it look like he'd been lost in the woods for 6 months), but he does seem to like the one on the right with the tree, so we have success! And I like them all, of course.

I love these portraits right outside the church just before the ceremony.
Me with my dad/me with my mom placing the veil in my hair. It's a Belgian lace veil that Garrett's mom brought back from her last trip to Belgium.
Next up, our Blessing!
