Joann and Gabe were married at St Columba Catholic Church with an exciting reception that followed at the Crystal Gateway Marriott.

Alton + Pricilla

October 11, 2011 – 10:42 am

Alton and Pricilla were married during the hurricane weekend and I think the first picture below says it all. There’s really nothing these two could do but get little wet and adjust your plans. That being sad despite the rain and wind outside inside we documented a fabulous wedding full of love, family and dancing!!!! Alton and Pricilla were truly a pleasure to work with and completely enjoyed their wedding day. It was tons of fun to witness this intimate wedding. Congrats guys!
