I had the pleasure of shooting Fotini (who happens to be a childhood friend) and Dan’s wedding with my lovely sidekick Veronica Morrissette. It was a blending of cultures, her family being from Greece and his from Spain. Lots of family, friends and love to go around. It was fun to watch the little wedding traditions that Fotini’s family had. There is one where she writes the names of the single girls on the bottom of her shoe and at the end of the night, whose ever name is still left will be the next one to get married. Another one is where her dad has to help her on with her shoes, but they don’t seem to fit, so he has to put money in them to see if that helps… haha. I love all of it. I’m Greek myself, so all of these traditions that I took for granted as a child hold a special place in my heart now.
They got married at Saints Constantine and Helen Church in Cambridge, MA and the reception was at the Liberty Hotel in Boston. I don’t know if you’ve ever been there, but that hotel is amazing! Here’s a little bit of trivia… it used to be the Charles Street Jail. There’s been a bit of renovating since then and it has these beautiful windows and grand catwalks. You’ll have to go and check it out sometime.
So onto Fotini and Dan’s big fat greek wedding… Oh wait, that was MY wedding. I still laugh when I think about it. Luckily my husband just rolls with whatever comes his way… lol, that’s why he fits riiiight in.
Ok, ok… too much of me getting sidetracked. Here’s to Fotini and Dan and their beautiful wedding. We had a wonderful time lovelies, thanks so much for having us along. xo
