A ‘first look’ is one of my very favorite things about weddings for those who choose them!  It seems so counterintuitive– like it’s taking away a special moment during the day.  But actually, I think it adds to that special moment!  Instead of seeing each other first at the wedding, this couple opted to meet at City Center beforehand and have a special moment where they first see each other on their wedding day.  They got a chance to talk, smile, hug, and kiss.  A chance to get that little nervousness out before standing in front of family and friends declaring their love.  It was beautiful!

And my very favorite picture from the day!  The couple has this in a 16×24 canvas in their home.

Look at them… soaking it all in & so in love!

And check out the fabulous desserts at the reception– all handmade!

A sweet brother-sister moment.

Congratulations to the happy couple!  May you have a lifetime of love & laughs.
