In order to explain his job as a [wedding photographer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/joycapture) to his young son, photographer Chris Thornton staged an adorable [toy wedding series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/photo-creator-video-projector-camera) featuring Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head's big day.

Since the three-year-old couldn't really get a grasp on what all the fuss of a wedding was about, this cute wedding photo series helped to show off some of the important components of a wedding day, including inviting friends and family for the ceremony, feasting and throwing flower petals at the newlyweds. In the photos, Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head get all dressed up for their [vow renewal ceremony](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/love-on-the-ledge), joined of course by a whole bunch of familiar characters from Toy Story like T-Rex, Buzz and Woody.
