Gene + Tina Wedding

Garden City Park
July 28, 2007

Tina was one bride who had no problem with time prior to the ceremony. She was so relaxed that morning and in fact, she had to find ways to stall to arrive a little late to the ceremony as it's said to be bad luck to be early or on time. Well, she got to the park in time and by the time Etta James finally cooperated and started belting out the first few words of At Last, Tina started walking towards the funky apple tree with an eagerly waiting Gene, a few minutes after 1pm... as planned.

As usual, we started at the bride's place for her preps and some detail shots...

Big boys need to pretty it up, too.
No pain, no beauty...

During the ceremony, a special guest made a surprise appearance... a spider!!! We can't say Tina was too thrilled. This was Tina after shaking off the spider from her dress...
Gene could not hold back his tears.

Gene and Tina, thank you for allowing us to capture the love evident throughout the day. We hope you had fun in the sun in Mexico.
