Congratulations Cara and Kevin

Saturday Cara and Kevin had a beautiful wedding. We started with the girls getting ready at their hotel and were there to capture the details of Cara's ensemble. After the ceremony we braved the cold (it wasn't really that cold) to take photos in the church garden. The fall blooms were stunning and I love how the photos turned out. Then we headed up to Devou Park for some fun photos with the bridal party and the couple. When we arrived at The Madison for their reception the room was gorgeous. And what a party. They even did a shoe game that is like a newlywed game. They had to answer questions and see if their answers matched. Too cute. During that game they both said that Cara was the better dancer - but boy was Kevin working it while trying to get the garter off! You two were so much fun. We had a great time at your wedding and we are so glad that we were a part of your big day.

Congratulations Arianna and Matthew

Yesterday we had a wonderful time photographing Arianna and Matthew for their wedding. They are such a fun couple I knew we would be in for a day full of smiles and laughter. We started the day at the hotel with the girls getting ready. Her flowers were so beautiful and they were designed by her friend. Next we went to the Florence Nature Park and met up with the guys. Matthew couldn't wait to see his bride. When they saw each other for the first time it was simply beautiful. And we followed those romantic photos with some great fun ones with the cement animal the hippo! I knew this couple was up for anything (remember they had the awesome engagement session at The Hyatt - they even did some cool photos posing like the mannequins).

So we had some fun! Another fun moment was seeing a praying mantis bug crawl up her cupcake skirt and Arianna and didn't care one bit. Their ceremony at The Basilica was so beautiful. What an awesome church. I couldn't help but take a bizillion photos there! After the ceremony we went to the courtyard of the church to take some more fun photos of the couple and the bridal party. And then from there we went on to the reception at Receptions South. I loved the matron of honor's speech. She cracked Arianna up by talking about how short of a time it took Arianna to find a wedding dress compared to how long it took her to find the right man. Well one last favorite moment - Matthew had to put his flip-flops on at the reception. Do remember his engagement photos with his flip-flops. You have to be comfortable and he is from the beach.

Well you two - have an awesome honeymoon. Thanks for being so much fun! And thanks to your family and friends for being so nice and fun to celebrate your day with!
