Linda and Vir are the sweetest couple.  The found each other in college when they shared a table facing one another and on this day, Aug. 6, 2016 they said “I Do” at the Wilderness Lodge.Wedding Wilderness Lodge Tacoma Seattle Photographer_0001.jpg

It’s easy to show all the same kinds of moments in wedding posts, but I really wanted to highlight some of the moments that were different for Linda and Vir’s wedding.  They passed the rings to all the groomsman, family and bridesmaids, warming them and blessing them before putting them on each other’s fingers.  A very special act while the vocal quartet say a song.Wedding Wilderness Lodge Tacoma Seattle Photographer_0030.jpg

Then, when it was time to put the ring on, it was a little snug :).Wedding Wilderness Lodge Tacoma Seattle Photographer_0032.jpg
Such an emotional time and even though they were running past me and I barely got this moment captured, I still thought it was perfect!Wedding Wilderness Lodge Tacoma Seattle Photographer_0033.jpg

Toasts are always so fun to listen to and laugh and cry with :).Wedding Wilderness Lodge Tacoma Seattle Photographer_0045.jpg
Weddings are a great time to get little family shoots in.  All you need is a couple of minutes and an adorable family!Wedding Wilderness Lodge Tacoma Seattle Photographer_0046.jpg

Linda and Vir had lots of special groups they wanted pictures with, their high school friends, their undergrad friends, their grad school friends and this group, Vir’s Hip Hop Team – yes, I thought they were actually a dance team, turns out they are a frisbie team!  hahaWedding Wilderness Lodge Tacoma Seattle Photographer_0048.jpg
