But first, since these photos follow the timeline of the day, you'll see the candids from the girls' photoshoot. It took place hours after the guys' photoshoot so we sandwiched it between the bride and groom portraits and the wedding party/family shots. So this first series is a catch-up from where we left off with the guys!
Frame me!
I was overly concerned with dirtying my dress before its debut so you'll see shots of my sister holding the train or me hiking it up (see previous post) or draped over my arm. Having never worn anything with a train, let alone a white dress, I was unsure how much dirt and grass stains it would pick up. Better safe than sorry. Our photographers managed to make these practical shots look artfully planned. Oh, you ladies are good!
This sassy sideways glance was reserved for Mr. PaC, who was shouting humorous photo suggestions as he filmed us from the terrace.
The increasingly-popular fake laughing shot. Note: I do not look this elegant/refined when I laugh.
You might notice the wind catching my sash. And while you're looking, maybe you'll pick up on the hazy, grey horizon behind us. Something was abrewin' and the thought of a rained-out ceremony began to cross my mind.
Love this photo effect.
Spinning around in circles. Me in a heavy white dress, my sister in grass-aerating heels. As my sister said, "Because we do this all the time!" (Check out her awesome calf muscles!)
Formal portraits with the ladies.
Add in the siblings and then a pair of close friends... and you have our wedding party!
Coming and going (below).
Black and white makes everything look better.
My parents plus sister.
Just my parents. You can see the family resemblance in both of my parents!
I love this one of just me and my parents.
Awww, they look like a couple of kids in love... after 30+ years of marriage.
This is one of the most important posed photographs, simply because my grandparents are in it. Between Mr. PaC and I, they are our only set of grandparents. I am so blessed that they were healthy and able to attend our wedding. Sadly, my grandfather has passed away since then, but knowing he witnessed our wedding makes my heart swell with love and fond remembrance.
With my family's portraits taken care of, it was Mr. PaC's family's turn.
His brother and parents join us.
Our photographer abruptly stopped mid-shoot. Someone was photobombing us!
The same person who snuck this shot of us in between poses...
Curious, we craned our necks to see who it was...
... Grandma! (I don't think she even knows what a "photobomb" is!) She dutifully ducked out of the photo as we chuckled and resumed the family portraits.
Mr. PaC with his mom and dad.
The moms laughing (at us) again, just like they did during our rehearsal.
Ever wonder what it feels like just moments before the ceremony? Then you won't want to miss the very next recap!

Catch up on our PaC recaps!
Days Before
- In the days leading up to the wedding, I wanted to be sedated.
- I walked the line between calm and stressed for the better part of our rehearsal day.
- "Don't panic" and its friends were what Mr. PaC kept telling me on the way to our rehearsal dinner.
Wedding Morning
- Best wedding morning advice: wake up slow and tackle the day at your own pace.
- Once at our venue, our DIY projects were assembled with our own two hands.
- The girls get ready with champagne and chocolate-covered potato chips.
- The guys are ready... and waiting.
- She's mine! All mine! (The dress that is.)
- Brown-eyed girl (and guy) portraits.
- Something old and new, borrowed and blue.
Portraits
- My sneaky groom has a secret heart when it comes to surprises.
- A first look for the two of us plus more couples portraits in the garden.
