As you will be able to see from this sneak peek of Linda and Tom's wedding at White Hawk Country Club, the sky was looking ominous and threatening rain. I believe we had a few sprinkles during the ceremony, but that was about it.
Taking a look at the above image of the golf course and of the girls below, the early part of the day was a sunny and warm Fall day. Linda and Tom are clearly in love so even if we had had hit some cold temps, they would have warmed the place up. No doubt they are a great couple and I had a blast photographing their big day.
Linda has to be the quickest dressing bride I have ever met!! We didn't do the traditional Getting Ready shots and within minutes of arriving she already had her dress on and was going over her decorations at White Hawk's clubhouse for the reception later that night.
