A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of meeting Danny and Kim on their wedding day while second shooting for Victor Pelicier. Danny’s family is originally from the Dominican Republic and he grew up in eastern Massachusetts before moving to Northhampton a few years ago. Shortly after moving west, he met, and would later marry, Kim. They were great to work with and I wish them both the best.
While Danny was in the bathroom getting ready for his wedding day, his best man thought it would be amusing to go through his chest of drawers to see what embarrassing things he could find. He pulled out this T-Shirt from Disney. Not exactly embarrassing, but probably not the most manly thing either…
While Vic was working with the girls, I hung out with Danny and his groomsmen while they were getting ready. After about ten attempts, they finally managed to get the tie just the way they wanted it.
After getting ready, it was off to the church. They were married at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses in Northhampton. This was a new experience for me, as I’d never been to this kind of service. It was also all in Spanish! My high school Spanish from twenty years ago didn’t get me very far, unfortunately.
After the service, we headed over to Look Park for family formals. We found an old stone building in the park and used the front steps.
After the friends and family were done with their pictures, then it was time to do just some portraits of Kim and Danny.
The reception was held at the Polish American Club in Northhampton where the party went late into the evening. Their “cake” was actually four or five different sized cakes of various sizes.
