Wedding Two for the Weekend Brings us Back to Morikami Gardens

The Morikami Gardens during a wedding shot in Infrared

Saturday, we got back to the terrific Morikami Gardens in Delray, where Alanna and her staff had the task of making everything fantastic, and came up big once again.  Waiting on the weather till the last minute possible, the call was made to go ahead and set up for their outdoor open air reception set up.  A risky call by our bride to be sure considering the forecast, but ultimately ended up being the right one as the weather held off, and the cool breezes made for a fantastic evening.   Turns out our bride really doesn’t care for flowers, even thought the ones she picked out were fabulously produced by Floral Designs by Yamir.  They bridesmaids bouquets were actually spectacular orchid designs and some of the bride’s bouquet were actually edible!  We did the formals and romantic’s early  on this wedding as well, which at the time seemed like it might actually be a good idea considering the weather.  However the rains held off, and turns out the light was actually better later in the afternoon/evening as it normally is.  Regardless, we were able to make some dramatic images, including some of our new Infrared 2.0 shots that really show off venues like the Morikami.  The DJ actually used vinyl, how cool was that!  And strangely…he never said a word on the mike.  That duty fell on the groomsmen for an interesting twist on emceeing a wedding.  Certainly they had a great time however as the party rocked on into the night.  Sadly some drunk idiot thought it’d be funny to first stick his hand in front of my lens, then later dumped a drink on me from behind.  It takes all kinds I guess.  Luckily none got on our equipment, or he’d be on the hook for some serious charges….This same goof was seen shoving folks around including some of the ladies while dancing, and even lept into the air onto an unsuspecting  guy he outweighed by a good 70lbs;  knocking him violently to the ground (all in good fun right!?!?).  Alcohol is wonderful isn’t it??  Anyway, you can see some of our favorites by clicking on the read more icon>>>
