Here’s part 2 of the Renee and Jerry’s wedding! I loved that they had a party BUS to take the girls to the wedding and then the bridal party to the reception at Auletto’s.

There’s a long story about this shot, but the priest kept moving me closer, and closer, to Renee and Jerry during this moment. In fact, he even made them redo lighting the candle so I could get this shot. That was so wonderful of him, because this shot is so beautiful of the two of them during such a special moment.
Married!
Here’s that very cool bouquet I talked about in yesterday’s post.
Oh, I forgot to mention that Renee made all these twirly-things (I forget what she called them). They were sticks decorated with flower and lots of ribbon and every guest got one to twirl when Renee and Jerry came out of the church! What a unique and fun idea!



Now this reception had both a DJ and a band (an irish band). About 1/2 through the evening, Jerry and some of the other groomsmen took the stage with the band. It seems that Jerry is in a band with some of these guys and then other of the groomsmen had been in the band at one time….so here’s a shot of ALL of them on stage (past and present band members):
Jerry:
And finally our matron of honor came up to do a song! EVERYONE had fun at this reception! The band, and DJ, kept everyone dancing into the wee hours (I suspect long after I left they were still going strong![]()
Renee: Leave a comment below with the name of the band, please! I wish Renee and Jerry and long and happy life together and thanks so much for letting me be a small part of your big day!!
