Sarah and Ryan are such a lighthearted fun loving couple! They were such a treat to work with! I’m pretty sure they were more concerned about everyone else on their wedding day than themselves! Let’s get to know them!
There’s a big ol rivalry in their new marriage…..you’ll see more later, I just want you to note what kind of garter Mrs. Sarah is wearing! :)
I love when I get to arrive early and shoot the girls and guys hanging out doing their thing, special thanks to Tanja who was able to shoot the boys! (literally glad they didn’t shoot her!)
Since we didn’t do “official” bridals I decided to capture a few while we were getting organized. We got to take the bridal party photos in the back yard, bonus!!! She’s so fun and just makes me want to smile!
We hurried on to the wedding at the gorgeous Immaculate Conception Church in Springfield Missouri.
I just think it’s adorable when my couples rent or borrow old classic cars for their getaway!!!
Then we all stopped off at a local park and took some super fun bridal party shots! Let me tell you I’ve never had such a fun and outgoing bunch before! It was a pleasure to work with this crew, they were up for any of my crazy ideas!
Oh of course we got some beautiful wind and amazing couple shots!!!!!! I just LOVE LOVE LOVE when my brides wear long veils! These shots are stunning!
I’ll be honest when Sarah told me about this place that has a cool cave I wasn’t too enthralled, but you better believe when we got up there and started shooting I was! I just love how they turned out!
Yes I posted an out of focus image……oh no……the world is going to end……..ok not really but there was just something about this image I couldn’t just toss it out! I love it.
Ok so show us the details! First off I must say I was totally impressed…..Sarah’s mom still has the penny she put in her shoe when she got married and now Sarah was able to use the same one!!! Adorable!
I loved the wedding day emergency kit they put together too cute!
The cake was provided by Julies Chewies and while I’m mentioning it, of course I had some and it was delicious!
So I explained a little bit earlier there was some rivalry but this should explain things a bit more!!! The football helmets were perfect for their ring shots! LOVED IT!
Then off to the reception where we got LOTS of dancing done with many thanks to Rick of Hits and Grins Entertainment. Ok does the little old lady not just make you all warm and buttery inside?!?!?! She’s adorable! I also want to point out that these two have some super proud mommas and daddys!!!!
I love this image too! I just adore the sparklers and the color!
Ramada I couldn’t have said it better myself!
Enjoy!
