Weekend Mountain Wedding: Fancy Men at Dreamland :  wedding pictures pro pics recap 16 1

So, while the girls were getting ready at the B&B, the guys were getting fancy at a friend’s cabin down the way called, “Dreamland”.

Dreamland was the perfect place for the guys to stay. It was built in the late 1800s, it has a view of the lake, and there is literally a cave built into the center of the cabin. It’s hard to tell from the picture below, but there’s a bedroom on the other side of that fireplace. And you enter that room by walking through a narrow rock cave tunnel on the other side. The guys loved staying at a place with their very own cave… very manly, you know. :)

Mr. E also had more friends show up the day of our wedding and cooked them all breakfast. Seriously—we shared this day with some pretty awesome people.

Mr. E went the traditional route of getting his groomsmen flasks, as well as some liquid courage to go inside. Here they are filling some up.

Every guy in the wedding wore black Vans (Our dads looked so cute in them!).

The guys got dressed and ready within no time. So, they relaxed on the deck until it was time to come over.

aww, I too love guys getting ready photos. Our photographer works alone, so he’ll be going back and forth between the girls and the guys getting ready - good thing we’ll be close.
