Jessica & Ben: MARRIED! {wedding : bolton, ct} Part 1

This post is a little bit personal :) Not only was I the hired photographer for part of the event, I was also a guest. Jessica is my husband's cousin, but the word cousin seems so distant. Jessica is much closer to both of us than just a cousin. I met Jessica and Ben about four years ago and when I was around the family, the conversation was always about when they were going to get married. Everyone knew Ben was a super guy and a perfect match for Jessica that they just wanted them to get married already so they could call Ben family. Everyone thought they were next so they sat around tapping their toes waiting for the big announcement. But I suppose my husband and I threw them for a loop when we were the next ones to get married. SURPRISE! But even at our wedding..."Now when are Jessica and Ben going to get married???" So you see, this day held much anticipation! And now it has come and gone, the newlyweds were happily over here for the Fourth of July, but their wedding has not been forgotten. I think they bought all the other single family members a few years by creating the most magical, fun and personal wedding any of us have ever seen. :)

I am going to do this post in two parts because there were just too many details and moments captured for just one post :)

Congratulations Jessica and Ben! Now when should we expect the babies???
