2013 Year-in-Review | Fun Wedding Day Moments | Northeast Ohio & Destination Wedding Photographers

Weddings are romantic, happy, occasions where people come together to celebrate a couple in love. Anyone who has watched America’s Funniest Videos knows, though, that weddings are often occasions for really funny moments! Here are some of our favorite fun or hilarious moments from our 2013 weddings!

funny reception photosThe groom unexpectedly brought out some granny panties during the garter toss!funny garter moment at receptionThis is one of the best wedding reception entrances we’ve seen! The wedding party all dressed as if they’d just come from the thrift shop & the DJ played that tune. 🙂
funny wedding reception entranceThis moment happened during the wedding ceremony. The officiant knows the family well & accidentally called the groom his brother’s first name during the vows. . . whoops!Ashley_Mason_W_30Just before this wedding ceremony, raindrops began to fall and the wind picked up. It hadn’t rained until that point in the day. When the bride & her father stepped up in front of the officiant and the groom & the bride & groom saw each other for the first time, a loud crack of thunder happened. Everyone in the audience sort of shifted in their seats, not knowing what to do. The officiant said, “Abi sure knows how to make an entrance!” That got everyone relaxed & laughing; the rest of the day was sunny & beautiful!
wedding ceremony in an barnI was the Matron of Honor in this wedding so I got to make a speech for my best friend, Ashley. I told everyone about some of our childhood memories, one of which was the fact that we thought Doritos gave us some sort of power. We’d eat a handful & then go run around the yard & jump over a creek. I said a little bit more in the speech about how much I love the bride & groom. Then I threw this in: “Ashley & Nic are going on a honeymoon. . . and they may just need this!” I then threw Nic a bag of Doritos. 🙂
wedding speechesI’m not quite sure that’s what the sparkler sendoff was for, Mr. Groomsman! 😀

Melissa_Marshall_W_0564Josh thought for sure someone was going to bite the dust during these running shots. All of the groomsmen and the groom started on their marks & then sprinted toward the camera in this loose gravel. The bride, bridesmaids, and I could hear them while we were taking some photos & they sounded like elephants. Thankfully, no one fell! 🙂
