Alice & Giles enjoyed perfect weather over Labor Day weekend. The bride's freshwater pearl and Swarovski crystal jewelry was handmade by their friend and officiant's wife, Shelby Smith. A slideshow of childhood pictures and an open-mic for toasts brought laughter and smiles to everyone's faces.

The last picture was a staged "brother of the bride punching the groom" shot - it was very spontaneous and silly - we were just having fun in the middle of a lot of family portraits.
