We Did It!

March 24th, 2008 @ 3:42 pm by Mrs. Onion

After we came down the isle as husband and wife, we had an impromptu receiving line. We didn’t plan a formal receiving line, but as our guests came out of the church they stopped to hug and congratulate us.


We had a few moments before everyone made it outside so we enjoyed some time together.


I **love love love** this photo. The sheer joy on both our faces tells you everything about how we felt!


I happily took notice of Mr. Onion’s wedding ring on his hand now that it was official! I love that our photographer caught this behind the pillar on the church steps — such a great perspective.


Meanwhile, one of my bridesmaids had an emotional moment. Apparently she was tearing up all the way down the isle after the ceremony.


And here another bridesmaid is comforting the crying one!


No tears from FIL Onion! He had this joyful smile on the entire day. What a wonderful energy and spirit he has. He was so happy for Mr. Onion — as I’ve mentioned before, they have a wonderful relationship.

And now…bring on the love from the wedding party!






I love the editorial feel and textures of this photo — the energy of everything as it’s unfolding. From right to left…you can see Mr. Onion’s brother giving him a great big hug, one bridesmaid waiting patiently to congratulate me looking right at the camera, our flower girl being a polite young lady waiting her turn too, another bridesmaid sharing a moment with me and the stunning light from the beautiful late afternoon sunshine.


In our wedding program we asked our guests to all gather together outside the church and wait for us to walk together to the restaurant. This also allowed us to take a group photo outside the church. Here we are gathering and getting ready for the group photo.




A few different takes on the group photo! I’m really happy to have all of our friends and family in one shot — easier to do when you only have 45 people there!


After the group photo Mr. Onion and I took a moment on the church steps.


And while that was happening, some of our male guests headed up the church tower to ring the bell!! I had no idea they had done this until I saw this photo.

Up next…the group processional up the Church Street Marketplace.

I wish we had done a reception line, even an improptu one, instead of trying to do the whole visit all the tables thing (time ran out on us and we didn’t make it to all of them, which just made us feel awful!).

Oh Petunia, I’m sure everyone understood. It was so much easier for us because our wedding was so small. Don’t worry!
