This wedding almost didn't happen... well... this wedding almost didn't happen for ME, I guess I should say. There were some crazy storms and swells the day I was supposed to get out to Martha's Vineyard and all the ferries were closed down and not running. So I started running through emergency situations. Let's see - I could commandeer a rowboat and row my way to glory, buy really big arm floaties and put in to practice those years and years of swimming skills, dust off the old scuba gear and buy some underwater housing, learn to fly a plane really quickly... well wouldn't you know that while I was hatching a brilliant plan the swells died down just enough for the last scheduled ferry that night [10 hours after I was slated to leave]  to take me to the island. Success! Though, to be honest, I was really looking forward to telling stories about how I had to club a Great White with my 70-200mm while blinding an octopus with my speedlight and showing up to the wedding dripping wet draped with seaweed. [sigh] alas. Just took the ferry over. Got crazy seasick if that counts for anything, though.

Amy and Kevin are some super cool cats - they live out in Cali but met out here and decided to wed on the Vineyard. Amy, in fact, pretty much made the whole wedding herself - did all the flowers, decorated the reception, created the invites... she's one talanted lady. She's also a fantabulous interior designer... you may want to check out her SITE. Fun times :] Kevin is a total rockstar - mellow and hilarious... it was so incredible to spend the weekend with these two. So now, without further ado, I humbly present to you...

Stacey and Dave are both from my hometown. It's pretty great to reconnect with folks after many many years and see what has become of their incredible lives. Wouldn't trade it for the world! Some fun facts - Stacey took me to her Jr. Prom. Dave and I played soccer together. Stacey is on her way to becoming an ASL interpreter and Dave is one of the big sports writers for the Concord Monitor.

There day began in Stacey's home and they made their way to St. Vasilios for their orthodox ceremony. After the crown thingy and the ring thingy and the chanting, singning, and walking around the altar, [all of which was quite awesome, I might add - this was my first Greek orthodox ceremony... excited for more :] we hopped on the party bus and made our way to Wentworth by the Sea for a wicked good party. Wonder ensued. So did the singing of Don't Stop Believin'. I now, very humbly, present to you...
