Photos from Leah and Josh’s Wedding Celebration

Josh Smiling

I went down to Lafayette, Louisiana, last weekend for my friends Josh and Leah’s wedding celebration. Leah and Josh live in Boston these days, but Josh grew up in Raine (which isn’t too far from Lafayette), and they wanted to have the wedding celebration there.

One of the main events, other than the reception itself, was a crawfish boil the afternoon of the reception. This was my first time going to a crawfish boil (and I hadn't actually eaten unshelled crawfish before either). I love shrimp, so I figured it’d be fine—my only small moment of pause was the mental image of eating food that still had its face on it. But in the end, I followed along with the more seasoned crawfish eaters, and things went just fine.

Lafayette isn't a big town, but it’s pretty charming. For the most part, I just parked my car at the hotel and walked almost everywhere—I walked to restaurants, I walked to the reception, and I ambled around for general photo-walking. A goof on my part was that my feet were frowning a bit from all that walking, but I probably should have know better than to jaunt around Lafayette in those strappy wedge sandals.

I’m so glad I had a chance to join Leah and Josh for their wedding celebration. They’re a fantastic couple, and Lafayette is a delightful little town.
