Lydia and Ed's Wedding at the Renaissance Festival Grounds | Tampa Wedding Photographer

I can't say enough about how fun this wedding was. Lydia and Ed are two unique people who made this wedding a complete reflection of their relationship with each other and their loved ones.Lydia and Ed met each other while working at the Bay Area Renaissance Festival in Largo. Even though the festival moved years ago to the grounds at MOSI in Tampa, they continued working there and building their love. So naturally, the decision to hold their ceremony and reception on the grounds was natural.The wedding day itself started out very rainy and dreary. The guys naturally turned to singing Irish songs and having a little Irish whisky to help the time pass. The girls hung out in the limo and had some whisky themselves. Regardless, a fun time was had by all. It stopped raining just in time for the sweet ceremony. Lydia and Ed smiled all along and didn't let the weather stand in the way of what they were there for, to be married.Special thanks to their wonderful vendors, Loryn Pretorius, who did Lydia's makeup, The Bride's Bouquet for the amazing flowers, and The White Closet Company for Lydia's gorgeous dress. I'm also especially thankful for my husband, Hank, and my second shooter, Dirk, for their great assistance. We all had a blast!Check back soon for the second half of this fun wedding!
