Theresa & James at The Black Walnut….. these 2 are nuts for each other. Shell Yea!
Before the ceremony kicked off, they did a very emotional back-to-back private vows session. Quiet moment, big feelings. The kind of pause in the day where the world shrinks down to just two people and a few happy tears.
Then the ceremony rolls along… and when hitchedbynick the celebrant hits the classic
“does anyone object to this marriage?” line…
Out comes the baseball bat 💥
Now before anyone panics, both of these legends work/worked in the police force, so let’s just say the room understood the assignment. Objections were….. strongly discouraged ⚾
James also spent the day casually looking like Ardie Savea’s long-lost twin. Solid backup plan for the All Blacks!
No bridal party, which offered some extra time to hang out with guests. Could this be a new trend to come!?
I even dusted off some freelensing for the first time in ages. Felt like riding a slightly chaotic bike again.
Then just when the day thought it had done enough… an epic sunset rolled in to close the show.
Good laughs, Fun quirks. My kinda jam.
