The Lady and Gentleman, Mrs. & Mr. Payne.
The weather was fantastic, the site well chosen with a beautiful overlook of the city, the bride was glowing, and a wondrous time was had by all. A true (ordinary inc.) gentlemen’s soiree. A very classy touch at the end as doves were released at the moment of their fledgling marital lip lock.
(Ordinary) Gentlemen well-dressed. The fellow on the right is our friend Trevor, the best (gentle)man of the ceremony.

may you both always be as happy as you look in that picture.Report
Thanks much everyone. At this point, we have over 1000 pictures in our possession from various friends/family, but have not had time to do anything with them. Given that we’re now doing the final packing to move into the new condo today, odds are that will remain the case. There are more pics floating around Facebook, feel free to shoot me a friend request to access them. You can find me via E.D., Freddie, or Chris.
Needless to say, Saturday was an amazing, overwhelming symphony of beautiful chaos, as was the whole weekend, really.
Cheers!Report
