ERIN + BLAIR MARRIED!

My brother got married last weekend to a thoughtful, beautiful woman, who I couldn’t be happier to welcome to our family. Erin, you are the sister I never had, and I am so thankful that you and Blair found each other. The weekend was a mini-destination wedding in Hilton Head Island, SC. I shoot weddings for a living, and I honestly forgot just how many details go into the whole affair… golf for the men, luncheon for the women, rehearsal, rehearsal dinner, hair, makeup, ceremony, reception – so many activities and so much fun! Erin, you did a phenomenal job planning; if anything went awry, I surely didn’t notice.

Since I was on bridesmaid duty (and truly honored to be!), then I didn’t have what I call “my permanent accessory” (aka camera) the majority of the time. However, I was still able to capture some moments that I wanted to share… And don’t worry, family, I’ll be posting more fun ones later. : )

Of course my mother had a UNC cake made for the rehearsal dinner. What can I say? We bleed Carolina blue…
