Annapolis Marriott Reception in True Style! Naval Academy Bride and Groom spared by looming weather.

W-O-W!!!!! ...is all I could say about Jennifer and Mark's wedding this weekend. I'm still recovering from all the excitement! This wasn't just a wedding.. it was a feature length film production! Setting - US Naval Academy. Can't get much better than that. Reception, Annapolis Marriott. Never in all my years of photographing weddings have I ever seen this room look this absolutely amazing. Sidni Greenblat and her assistant Ashley from Rave Reviews Wedding Consulting did an absolutely amazing job. Kudos to Kim Hansman from the Waterfront Marriott in Annapolis too! The room was stunning! Everything a photographer could ask for. I was speechless when I entered the room. That's all I can say. And the band...Oh My Gosh!!!! Free Spirit from Baltimore's Entertainment Exchange simply were amazing.  I will refer them exclusively from now on. If I could do it over again I would have them at my wedding in a heartbeat. Exceptionally talented musicians. During AC/DC's "Shook Me All Night Long", one of the horn players grabbed took to the mic to sing the song and actually sounded just like the raspy, guttural Brian Johnson. I could not believe my ears!

Of course, and as promised, the rain held off and my record continues... Never has rained on me at a Naval Academy wedding. (Knock on wood). Just as we finished up with the final set of photos on the Sea Wall, Jill and I noticed the first raindrops on the windscreen of the car on our way to the reception. It's really funny how I can almost control the weather. Of course, I can't take all the credit for that...(looking up to the ceiling) "Thanks God! I really appreciate it sir". Great weekend all around; I'm still trying to catch my breath and rest. I can't wait to do it all over again next weekend. 

Check out Jill's slide show. Thanks baby girl!
