Jo and Mike’s gorgeous backyard wedding in Guilford, Connecticut was one of my all-time favorite weddings. IT WAS SO MUCH FUN.
I don’t really know how these guys do it. Jo and Mike manage to be some of the most serious, sophisticated, elegant people I’ve met–and they’re also some of the most fun, rowdy, let-your-hair-down-and-dance-your-ass-off folks as well. I suppose they call that ‘the complete package’?
My respect and love for these two knows no bounds. Being a part of their orbit has been a delight from start to finish. Their wedding was STUNNING (props to wedding planner extraordinaire Regina of Weddings by Regina Marie) and emotional and kickass. Their styling was perfect. And their dancefloor was ON FIRE.
Usually, by the end of a wedding my second shooter and I are pretty thoroughly exhausted and are looking forward to our beds. For some reason, at the end of Jo and Mike’s wedding, BOTH of us were actually disappointed when it came time to leave. It was that fun. Congratulations, you guys. It’s been a dream working with you.
