| Joshua and Jenny in Plano |

Joshua and Jenny tied the knot Saturday at First Christian Church in Plano. It was an awesome wedding, and you'll see why, hopefully, in the photos.

Josh was first to arrive.



Josh is a chemist by trade, so I am pretty sure he'd smoke me in Jeopardy. About my only chance would be if I could say 'Only things short, fat, bald men know for a hundred, Alex.' Not too likely, huh. Anyway, Josh was so calm and collected. He even found time, at the church, to clip his nails. I have never seen that before, but then again, I have never photographed a chemist before. It may be a ritual that only smart guys do.





I told Aaron, the best man, that he was so helpful as a best man, that I was going to offer his services to people who have a best man who isn't on the ball as much. Aaron laughingly said that would be cool. I found out later in the evening that Aaron is also a chemist.





I'm telling you, this guy was on top of it.



Jenny showed up for a wedding, and brought this dress with her.



Here she is now getting ready.



Check out the shoes!



Jenny's mom Scharlotte is a florist. In fact, I met her at another wedding that I photographed last year. Suffice it to say that when you want the most fabulous flowers possible at your wedding, it kinda helps to have a florist in the family. So the details for this wedding are all about flowers...













Almost time to start. There's Josh at the end of the sanctuary. Is it me, or does he look like he's dancing?



Here comes the bride, helped along by her dad, Ron.



First Christian Plano has the most amazing stained glass. Either that, or Aaron put some kind of chemical on them to make them seem really colorful. Wait a minute! That's actually done by the photographer...the guy with the slightly longish nails...





Another of the beautiful bride...



Now it's time to head over to the reception, at Reflections on Spring Creek in Plano. Can't drive over to an elegant place like that in anything less than cool.



But first...



And here they come.



Just in time for a first dance.



And then, we were whisked over to the gazebo where we thought we were just going to take photos. But SURPRISE and BOOM! The families had arranged a surprise fireworks show in their honor. Think they were surprised?



The show was really amazing. It was put on by Pyrotex. Cool name. And J & J sure enjoyed the light show. Once they got used to the idea, that is.







Here's Jerry Hassell of HVPro. Check out that concentration!



And a shout out to Daniel Richmond, the super cool entertainment man.



You gotta love this setting by Reflections on Spring Creek...



Not to mention the cake.



Gotta have a ring shot, yes?



Apparently most of Jenny and Josh's women friends are married...



One more dance with Dad,



And one more with Hubby.



Thanks guys, for letting me be part of such an extraordinary wedding!
