We're in the process of setting up an online site to share all of our pictures (and also so you can share pictures with us)! We hope to have that up in the next few days.
In the meantime, a little info to address some questions that have been asked:
We will have the full-resolution digital images from both the photographer and the photo booth, and will likely post those online (details to come).
So, you don't have to buy those pics online from them -- you should be able to download them from our site (although the quality of the prints you get from their sites might be much nicer than you'd get from a Walgreens).
We hope to organize all of the photos on our site and include a "highlights" folder so you don't have to go through hundreds of photos.
But until we get our site running, you can preview all of those pictures at the photographer's sites:

Finally, if you have some pictures from the wedding weekend and you haven't shared them with us, we'd love to see them! If you have a handful of pics, you'll be able to email them directly to our online site (check back for details). Or if you have a large number of pics and wouldn't mind snail-mailing them to us, we'd be happy to reimburse you for postage and other costs -- just let us know!

Our big day
Thanks to all of you who made our wedding weekend one we will remember for the rest of our lives! The well-wishes of friends and family (both those who were able to be there in person and those who were celebrating with us in spirit) made us feel more loved than we could have imagined. We wanted to give a quick update with a few pictures (we'll be sure to post more later!)
The last few weeks leading up to the wedding were a bit of a blur -- as Mike crossed things off of our list of "things to do before the wedding", Linda seemed to be adding more things to it! We were lucky (and thankful) that Steve and Ami (and Zach & Keleigh) stopped by NJ on the Wednesday before the wedding to lend a few extra hands! Needless to say, it all got done and we packed up our U-haul (yes, that's right! we travelled in style!) and headed up to Pocono Manor on Thursday.
Friday night, we had a wonderful dinner with family who had come in early. We lucked out and found a delicious little Italian restaurant that was able to accommodate all of us. While they weren't used to serving such large parties, the food was delicious, and we certainly enjoyed the good company!
Saturday, Linda spent some time at the spa with her girls, while Mike was able to do a little relaxing of his own.
The rehearsal went off without a hitch and we were excited to "get the party started" with the Welcome BBQ Saturday night. Nearly 130 people came out early to join us for the BBQ which gave us a great opportunity to catch up with family and friends before the madness of the actual wedding. Despite the darkness, the "signature" game was quite a success! In the end, Linda's cousins Alyssa and Hannah managed to complete their list first, followed shortly thereafter by Ben and Gwen. Collectively, we finished off all the veggie-burgers, all the Guinness and the entire keg of Yuengling! The campfire went late into the night, fueled by the musical stylings of Rowley, Jackson, J, Mellen and, of course, Bailey and his flutes! Even the bride took a turn on the guitar (fortunately, she managed to avoid ruining her manicure!)
After several cloudy, rainy days, we woke up Sunday morning to the most perfect weather we could have imagined -- sunny, blue skies, not-too-hot... this was the day we had dreamed of. Looking back, we have zero complaints -- the day was perfect... and we are so happy to have shared this special event with so many of our dear friends and family. We promise to post more pictures soon, but here are a few to tide you over!
