Lynn & David's Wedding

Lynn is Elizabeth's sister whose wedding we photographed last November 1. I met David at that wedding and realize he must have been planning to pop the question at that time because less than 8 months later they had gotten engaged, planned and executed a phenomenal wedding. But I must give David his props here and congratulate him for not stealing Elizabeth's thunder by proposing near to or (even worse) on Elizabeth & Sean's wedding day!!

The wedding ceremony was held at Brooklyn's First Presbyterian Church in Brooklyn followed by a reception at the Picnic House in Prospect Park.

Kim met the girls at Lynn's apartment for some getting ready images. Here Mom and sisters Elizabeth and Debbie are about to help Lynn put her dress on..

...and some final tweaking and buttoning with the help of sister-in-law Jennifer..

Lynn wore a beautiful hairpiece and I just love this photograph that shows it off..

This is how to keep flower girls pre-occupied and happy!

Meanwhile, over at the church, I met up with the guys in the church's summer camp room!

Lynn and David had a very unique and uplifting ceremony during which they conducted 'Passing of the Peace' I had never seen the likes of this before but it was truly inspiring - everyone just got up out of their seats and walked around the church hugging and greeting everyone else for about 15 minutes!

Lynn and David had rented a 1960s Checker Cab for their wedding Limousine which you can only really pull off if you get married in one of the 5 New York Boro's and makes for a very cool ride. Being in Brooklyn however, you never know who's going to be strolling around and sometimes you get lucky and are able to set the scene with a local carrying his groceries and wearing his Yankee's jacket!

..and Manhattan in the background here. We were so fortunate that the rain held off long enough for us to get these great location images for Lynn and David..

This next image has to be one of my favorites from the wedding: beautiful light, beautiful bride and a little vintage processing magic to make you feel you are back in the 1960s!
