Haven't posted in a while, and this last wedding, the couple actually tied the knot on 09-09-09, but had their reception & tea ceremonies on the weekend. CCs are always welcomed & appreciated.

A technical note on the side for those whom wanna know.
Everything was shot with bounced flash balanced close to ambient, last dancing shot was done at ISO 1600 to grab the color lights
2 lenses were used on full frame, the 16-35 & 135, if not for the formal, I would have loved to pull my 35mm out, one of my favorite lens.
Except for formals, everything was shot from ISO 800 and up, wide open, which means F2.8 or F2.0
No special processing was applied, just WB adjustment, which I think was still off on some of them on my new monitor.

That last shot rocks. Color is brilliant and the staircase really accentuates the shape of her dress.

He did look a little like Jet Li in some shots, but not so much out in real life :) Thanks.

Good use of DOF on all shots. I think the shallow DOF bit you on the first shot, as there really doesn't appear to be a single point of interest, but everywhere else, it really helped make your photos interesting and unique. Beautifully done!

Thanks and I have to remember to bring my macro tubes next time. Not having tubes made it harder to do detail shots like the first one.

I like them, but i find it odd that in #5 the wedding ring is out of focus and the other ring is in focus.

Viet, seems like you are not only in need of buying my camera bodies, but also my 100mm macro. LOL

Thanks, and yeah I know it's weird looking, but couldn't help it with the placement of her wedding ring.
