It was the most gorgeous winter wonderland kind of day for Carrie and Charlie’s wedding.  The beautiful white historic home they chose for their venue only added to the wonderful feel of the day.  The wedding was intimate and cozy, and considering Charlie just moved to The States from England, there were lots of beautiful English accents floating through the air.  :)  Things that stood out about this wedding to me…..

The dress that Carrie wore that was her mothers from 1974. She hardly altered anything, and didn’t have to re-size it at all.

The locket of “Bonnie Prince Charlie” that Carrie wore.  It has been passed down in Charlie’s family for many generations, and is over 250 years old.

Charlie’s BIG smile…

Carrie’s super low maintenance character….I think her total time for hair, makeup, and dressing was 20 mins!

Hands down the best live wedding music EVER.  Jake Speed and the Freddies were crazy amazing! Their country- bluegrass sound provided some fun foot tapping tunes through the night.

I’ll just let you see for yourself…..

Carrie and Charlie, thanks so much for having us!  Your day was beyond beautiful, and we were incredibly honored to be a part.  We wish you all the best on this new adventure.  :)

We are coming out of our blog hiatus to bring you a gorgeous wedding!  Over our break we photographed *three weddings* and this is the first of those three.  Kayla and Tony were such wonderful people to work with.  We did not do an engagement session with them, so we never know what to expect without that “camera familiarity.” When they met for their first look, it was so incredibly sweet.  Kayla came up from behind and touched Tony’s back, and when most men turn quickly to see their bride, Tony grabbed and held her hands for a while….he stood with his back to her and just loved her.  I could tell from this first meeting that we were going to have a very precious day filled with wonderful love!

Kayla and Tony, thank you for your kindness, and for sharing your beautiful day with us!  We wish you all the best and many, many, years of happiness.
