Saturday we had the pleasure of filming for Jen and Joe’s wedding. It was a blast! Luckily the rain held off and allowed for some great photo time and a lot of fun locations. The photographer was Rick Jennisch and their photos can be seen on his blog. (rickjennisch.com) Sometimes we can get a little crazy to get the shots and thankfully I didn’t get run over on the bridge or streets that we were shooting on…..not this week at least :-)

Jen and Joe incorporated a lot of their ethnic backgrounds into the wedding. Joe’s Italian background led them to chose a canolli flavored cake while Jen followed Japanese tradition by having 1000 origami cranes at the reception for a long and prosperous marriage. The cranes were behind the cake, on each table and placed above the dance floor. These can be seen throughout the highlights and were a very neat addition that we had not seen before.

Jen and Joe’s wedding is also going to be featured on a brand new blog of ’Featured Weddings in the Quad Cities’. This blog will be part of qcweddings.com and will give a lot more insight into what all went into the planning and making their wedding day so special. I will post a link to that as well once it is up.
