Leah & Chris at Shuckers

www.memoriesbymark.com

Last  Saturday we photographed the wedding of Leah and Christopher Gift. It is the second time we have photographed a wedding for the Gift  family.  I guess they like us!  The day started at a cute, out of the way church hidden in Jensen Beach called the Treasure Coast Christian Church or TC3 as they call it.  As you entered the church lobby, the was a photo displayed of the bride as a child at her preschool graduation.  The amazing fact, discovered just recently, was that the little boy in line right behind Leah was in fact her new husband Chris!  That's right, they went to the same preschool together. 
 
 Neither of them remember each other from back then and it wasn't until the wedding that one of the groom's  family members saw the photo and said, "That's Chris in line behind Leah". Wow, talk about Karma.  The wedding ceremony was lovely as Leah's 3 bridesmaids and one of the cutest flower girls ever walked down the aisle before her.  Leah was so excited as she walked down the aisle escorted by her father.  After the ceremony it was photo time of the family and bridal party.  For all of you brides-to-be please remember to allow us at least 30-40 minutes at the church to take your photos.  Of course some additional time will be required if you want photos taken at your reception venue too.

Speaking of reception venues, Leah & Chris had their reception at Shuckers on the Beach.  Wow, talk about a breathtaking view!  After  a little beverage break it was off to the deck at Shuckers for photos on the beach.  The bridal party posed with military precision as I placed them for their photos, all the while being watched by 100 spectators having dinner on the deck! They were great and we knocked out those photos in no time.  Then it was time for introductions and the 1st dance.  After the toast by the Best Man and Maid of Honor, the delicious buffet opened to the guests all the while enjoying the sounds from the DJ.  The crowd got serious after dinner with some outstanding dance moves and then the couple fed each other cupcakes from the  cupcake tree.  Cupcakes are all the rage right now at weddings and who doesn't like a cupcake? The night ended with Leah & Chris kissing each other on the beach, unaware of another person on earth but each other! Thank you guys for the opportunity to capture some great photos.  I'll be waiting for the phone call to take baby photos sometime in the future!

Since 1985 Memories by Mark has been providing award winning photography, videography, photo booth rentals, and event up lighting.  We have a package to fit every budget and every circumstance.  Don't trust your memories on an unknown, unlicensed, uninsured photographer that had a cheap price on Craig's List!  You do not have a second chance to get your wedding memories captured correctly nor is a family friend or relative that has a camera qualified to shoot your wedding.  It really makes no sense to spend thousands of dollars on a wedding and then not photograph and/or videotape the event correctly. You cannot compare the price of photography to a cake or limo as those are just a one time, one use portion of your wedding.  Your photos and videos will last a lifetime so call us today at (772) 466-5747 to find out how affordable our rates are to have a lifetime of....Memories......by Mark!
