Now this was an interesting wedding day! Everything started easily enough with 100 degree heat and humidity but still a nice sunny day. We had a beautiful expressive couple that was primed for some nice unique photos. Britni is an art teacher and definately had some influence on what types of photos she wanted which was exciting to me because it opened us up to get a
little out of the box. All was going well when we started to see some dark clouds right before Jimmie and Britni saw each other at Alms Park for the first time. So we continued right up until the massive wind hit without any warning except for some swaying trees. We immediately went to the cars knowing the rain was coming. As it was, none of this was that big of a deal. We didn't know what the storm had in for us though.

There was Debris all over the roads making for extremely slow traffic making a large number of guests late to the Wedding Ceremony at the Norlyn Manor in Batavia. The decision was made to move the ceremony back to accommodate those
guests which allowed us more time to complete photos so there was nothing to do after. There was only one problem, the electric was out and it had been raining so we planned to move the ceremony inside. After a little weather watching
Britni and Jimmie decided it was back outside we went! The fine staff at the Norlyn Manor went right back to setting up outside to make for the beautiful outdoor wedding Britni had always wanted... and it was. Then the real challenge presented itself. With no electricity there was no way to run soft drinks, dj, lighting, ovens etc. So Norlyn Manor went out to purchase a generator to run the essentials including my strobe to light up the room. Yes, the room you see in these photos was so dark you couldn't see each other's faces. DJ Joe with Don Wegman Entertainment had some light on the dance floor to help but it was still super dark. Joe was great all night and kept the dance floor rockin while working with all of the last minute changes.

I must say that both Joe with Don Wegman Dj's and Joe with Norlyn Manor really made Britni and Jimmie's wedding a huge success when it could have been much much worse. Thanks to both of you and all the staff that helped! Of course I can't forget the amazing Tracy with Tres Belle Cakes and Amelia Florist for all they did as well!
