Ashley and Aleks got married a couple of weeks ago, and although I posted their slideshow, I haven’t had time to blog about them. So I’m finally catching up. Things at the Cope household have been cranking along. For those of you that may be visiting for the first time, my husband and I bought a house last year that was originally built in 1890. We’ve been working on it, and living in it, which makes life a little crazy. That, combined with having a four year old, and finishing out my 2009 wedding season, booking my 2010 season, etc… well… you maybe understand why I haven’t blogged as frequently. But now I’m catching up. I have three weddings and an engagement session to blog, so check in frequently over the next few days.
Ashley and Aleks had a beautiful, albeit very rainy, wedding day. Ashley is the sister of Lisa, who I had the pleasure of working with last year. Since I had worked with their family just a year ago, it was really fun to see them all again, they are such a wonderful group.
Here’s a favorite of Ashley during getting ready photos.

Ashley and Aleks were married at the Macedonian Orthodox Cathedral. Aleks comes form a Macedonian background. There are so many interesting Macedonian rites and traditions. This being my second Macedonian wedding, I was prepared to catch them. I do have to say that the two Macedonian weddings I have done might just have been my two most fun weddings ever. Plus the Macedonian Cathedral is just gorgeous.

Of course, with the rain, we were a little bit hindered with group shots outside, however, we made it work and had a great time. See what I mean about the Cathedral being beautiful.

One of my favorites from the day.

and now their slideshow…
