I’ve just started this blog post and I’m already out of words. Ugh. I don’t even know how to start this because… well… it’s them… and they’re incredible people who had an epicly awesome day. Okay. Heeeeere weeee goooo!

Tsone (pronounced Shō-nāy) couldn’t tie his tie because he was so nervous. Luckily Abe came in for the win.

Abe, thanks for coming through. I was a hot nervous wreck and couldn’t tie for the life of me!

Christy (pronounced Kris-tē ;)) with her mom while reading Tsone’s letter before the wedding.

The men were all asked to buy royal blue suits. Abe and Timi laid their suits on the bed and then noticed how well they matched. Ani heard this and proudly walked in with his own suit proclaiming, “I’m about to nail this!”

“Watch it be black…” Timi jokingly said under his breath.

Ani then throw it down on top of the others and and shouted, “BAM!”

“NOOOO, ANI, NOOOO!!!!” -Timi and Abe

“Wha?! I could have swore it was blue.” -Ani

Tsone is a photographer himself (I met him at one of my workshops yeeeears ago) and at one point he was looking over at me during the ceremony when the officiant had asked him a yes or no question. Tsone was too distracted. I looked at him and mouthed, “say yes!” Tsone realized he was supposed to be looking at Christy and said, “Yes!” followed by, “Sorry! I’m just so distracted by her beauty!” Good save Tsone.*

*I mean, it waaaaaas a good save until I just told this story! 😉

When the officiant asked for one of the rings Ani couldn’t find it in his pocket. After feeling around for it he realized there was a hole in his pocket and it fell through into the liner. Ani took his jacket off and eventually the brothers helped by tearing out a portion of the liner to get it out.
Blog readers, I hiiiiighly encourage you to swipe through the series below for a good smile for your day. 1) my view. 2) Megan’s view of the exact same moment. 3) Tsone’s parent’s reaction. 4) They found it. PHEWWWW!

This is often my favorite part of a wedding: WEEEE’RE MARRRRIED!!!!

Christy & Tsone

The ceremony started pretty late so by the time it was photo time, the sun was setting. D’oh! So…. Meg$$$ and I did what we doooo! We quiiiiickly powered through family photos (I just looked at the time stamps: 11 minutes. WHOA!) and the wedding party (8 minutes) so that we had enough light for the bride & groom.

….and I have absolutely ZERO regrets about that! My favorite below.

Tsone is his dad's twin. You can REALLY see it in this photo!

Because we were on such a tight timeline, pretty much all of the bride & groom photos that we took… they never left that rock. I would re-adjust their pose periodically. Megan and I moved around them and switched lenses to diversify the images as much as possible.

THAT OTTAWA SUNSET THO?!

Ani’s toast.

Christy’s sister Alexandra incorporated the shoe game into her toast. If you’ve never heard of the shoe game before, click here. I’ve only seen it a few times and every time I laugh.
