A Very Swiss Wedding

David & Cornelia met while rock climbing in France (from what I understand), and since their first glance, well they really hit it off. They live in Switzerland, yes in Europe. (insert swoon here) He proposed to her in Long Point (yup, here in Norfolk, Ontario).
Quick facts:
They are
1) close friends of my fiance & I
2) completely magazine worthy [don't they look it?]
3) so ridiculously athletic
I'm honoured to have gone to Switzerland, stayed with many great people, and had the opportunity to photograph my close friends get married. I wish I knew more Swiss-German though, that way through the ceremony I could understand what was being said. I caught a few words and since there was all smiles, it was a good ceremony.
David wore a black slim suit, white dress shirt and a purple tie.
Cornelia had a lovely white convertible dress, (she could be strapless, one strap etc) and her flowers were pale pink and bright green. Nice and springy. She didn't have a traditional bouquet either.
Then after the ceremony came a light lunch where ceremony guests got to mingle with the newly weds, of course I stole them for a little bit. It was bright out, but not too hot, the joys of a spring wedding. Maybe it helped that we were by Lake Constance, like right there. The colours of the wedding, well there wasn't a theme to the colours. Pink, green & purple. Maybe that was the theme, but it wasn't so pronounced like it is here. Also there was no wedding party, just best man & maid-of-honour. Keeping it simple, just like the couple.
