About Me: I am a Southern California native who enjoys cooking, writing, travel and all things in the arts. Mr. Peppermint and I met in college and he proposed on our four year anniversary in one of our most special places, Joshua Tree National Park. We're having a destination wedding in Palms Springs that will incorporate tradition as well as reflect our personalities!
The Big Day: Formals
May 16th, 2008 @ 3:55 pm by Mrs. Peppermint
And now onto the next part of our wedding: Formals Photos!
Because we opted to not do the formals before the ceremony, this meant that we did them immediately after. I was a bit nervous about this, but I must say that I was completely relaxed for it. We had a lot of fun and I think the photos captured the joy!
THE BRIDE & GROOM:
Since Mr. Peppermint & I opted not to do an engagement session, it was important to us that we get some great photos of the two of us. I really love the sweet moments that were captured, as well as the beauty of the setting.
And our favorite of the bunch…
FAMILY FORMALS:
I wish we had been a bit more organized with which formals we wanted. In the end, I’m happy with what we got, but I wish I had been clear about who we wanted in each photo.
What can I say, we got a bit goofy!
WEDDING PARTY FORMALS:
Pretty self-explanatory…
Here we are with our ringbearers & flowergirl:
And then some with our groomsmen & bridesmaids…

oh so sweet. i love your look. what do you mean about being more clear? share, share! i think it’s totally intimidating to try and direct your photographers but maybe it is needed afterall.
Okay, I’ve decided that I need to get some formals that include sitting in chairs. The variety of levels they introduce makes the pictures that much more interesting to me (not that everyone doesn’t already look fantastic!).
And I agree with perfect bound - share what you mean by being more clear!
I love, love , love your dress! Alll of the shots are beautiful & everyone looks so happy.
