Jonathan & Tricia's Wedding

Tricia and I can check off another thing on our list.  We have chosen Chris Brunelle as our DJ.  He did the music at the wedding of her friend Angie who gave him a glowing recommendation.  This leaves us with all the difficult music choices to ponder.  She did all the leg work for DJs so I’m covering the bases for a photographer.

I’ve done some introductory looking but will eagerly accept any suggestions that people may have for photographers.  There’s an elusive Dedhamite who does wonderful pictures that I’ve looked into and I’ve also found a list at the Massachusetts Wedding Guide.  It has a lot of photographers and will take some time to check details for each.

We face a unique challenge with photographs because we don’t want much.  We want the traditional posed photographs but we don’t need a lot of candids.  We picked up disposable cameras for each table so guests can take pictures that we’ll develop.  We don’t want the fancy sepia prints and only a few of the black and whites.  We don’t need any fancy wedding album because we’d like to make that ourselves (it’ll be fun and romantic).  We just need someone to take some photos and develop them without giving us a lot of stuff.  This is proving problematic because most seem to be larger than life photographers when we need someone low key.

Considering just over a year away from the wedding we’re in excellent shape.  We have the church booked, the reception site booked, we’re doing our wedding prep in July, Tricia has her dress picked, and the bridal party is set.  The DJ, an usher, and other details have also come together.

As always thanks for following our journey.
