Wedding... "Fiji Style"

As I was paddling around the lagoon between two islands in Fiji, I noticed boats carrying supplies back and forth from a sandbar in the middle of the ocean. After watching them for a little bit, I realized that they were setting up for a wedding. Imagine having or going to a wedding in the middle of the ocean... I think it would be pretty incredible. I thought about sticking around to watch the ceremony, but I had already gotten a lot of sun and decided to cruise back to the shade of some palm trees. However, before I bailed, I decided to take a few photos.

Love is "Kuhl" (pronounced: cool)

When an old friend of mine from Chicago (now living in Boston) told me that he was getting married, I was excited for him... and then when he told me his wedding would be in Miami during winter, I was excited for me! The wedding was beautiful, the trip was fun, and I'm exhausted (and a little broke... South Beach is not cheap). Here are some pictures I took of the wedding. Enjoy!

The wedding took place right on the beach in front of the Gansevoort Hotel.

A very tasteful opening song by a harp and violin players.

The groomsmen (all Kuhl brothers)

Are you sure you want to do this???

The lovely bride walking with her father.

I do!

Lots of glassware!!

The first dance. 

Looks like a fairy tale image... like the 1 second exposure.

Micah busting a move!!... moving too fast to capture a picture (Micah won the dancing contest at this wedding)

The pretty ladies.
