  • I love that the groomsman/groom look like little boys goofing off in church. They are supposed to be so responsible and old enough to get married but they are just having a good time. The classic, "what me, nervous?" signal injects some levity into a solemn occasion. It's a feeling I imagine just about any groom can relate to, and fun to see it caught on film.
