Andrew and Ellen's Wedding - Ceremonial Tea Set

Being an avid student and chronicler of culture, I was pleased to see that Andrew and Ellen's ceremony would provide ample opportunity to observe, learn and capture elements not commonly seen at weddings here in the United States.  This included a carefully planned and choreographed tea ceremony.  But not just any tea ceremony; this was one conducted by a special family friend flown in to handle it just right.  Naturally during the ceremony itself I stayed put where I was seated, so couldn't capture it with the Bigger Cahoona, but was able to photograph the setup before guests arrived.

Not to say that it wasn't expertly captured in every aspect.  The professional photographer they hired, along with the assistants and all of the equipment they brought in, were top-notch, and I've hardly seen better wedding photography anywhere.
