Mark & Lynn's Wedding

This last weekend I had the pleasure to attend the wedding of the younger of my girlfriend's older brothers. Got it? It was held in Midway, Utah, which is a little south of Park City in the Wasatch Mountains. I found it a little bizarre and kitsch at first that it has so many Swiss-style buildings (which look rather out of place in a dry area with few trees), but apparently there was a lot of Swiss immigration in the 19th century (thanks Wikipedia!).

I also realised that I need a faster lens for low-light conditions such as these, as many shots were unfortunately either too blurry or too grainy.


Tea Ceremony

However, in this case the blur worked to my advantage as I unintentionally tracked the motion.


Decorating

One of the many red lanterns that formed part of the decorations.


Before the ceremony

An arty shot of the rings.


Name tags

These name tags were (apparently) meant to be used to reserve seats for dinner. I put mine on my wine glass. Just a matter of priorities, I guess!


Fraternité

A bit of moral support from the older, married brother to the groom.

Mr and Mrs Kindred!


Reception

The delicious squash soup was eventually served and was well worth the wait.


Let's get this party started!

Father of the bride. Party on!
