Sidle Wedding: Hurrican Ike Re-Do

In the months leading up to her September 13 wedding, Erin and I talked about all the details and had a perfect plan for the day. Then about Thursday of the week of the wedding, we both realized that this wedding was not going to happen. Well, at least not the way Erin and her fiance Adam had planned. Hurricane Ike was barreling through the Gulf headed for none other than...Houston! But Erin and Adam did not let that stop them. They were determined to get married that day, rain or shine. They just wouldn't be able to do it quite as they planned. So they arrange to get married in a small ceremony with only their family and rescheduled the big shebang for October 25. It ended up being a beautiful day for a wedding redo.

It was a beautiful sunset ceremony looking over a pond at House Plantation. Adam had still never seen Erin in her dress so we arranged a special time for them before the ceremony where they could see each other for the first time. This allowed them to have a private moment, as well as allow us to take almost all of the photos before the wedding. (It was going to be dark after the ceremony was over.) Their vows were a little different than the usual since they were already married, and there was no need to do a ring exchange. After a quick ceremony, they got on to the party! Ok, I'll say no more and let the pictures do the talking. Thanks Adam and Erin for a wonderful evening!

Adam waiting patiently for Erin to sneak up behind him. After this moment, he saw her for the first time that day in a private moment on the balcony.

They left in a beautiful shimmer of sparklers. I love how this turned out with them as the only thing in focus.
