Dad & Wendy's Wedding | 4.27.13

 In April, these two finally got married. It was a gorgeous (and fun!) wedding, and I couldn't ask for a better stepfamily. Which y'know.. ends up just being family. Which is wonderful.

After they said their vows, and put their sand in, all the kids (kids.. haha we're all adults but you know what I mean!) gathered around for the sand ceremony. My dad and Wendy really wanted this to be apart of the wedding to finally tie both sides together, and it was so beautifully done. 

Wendy and her daughter-in-law/wedding planner, Shanna!

 My new stepsister!! But I just call her my sister.. just 'cause.

 Me in a dress doesn't happen very often.. ha.

 The table setting was gorgeous. Between the colors and the flowers? Ahhhh.

 Wendy's speech.

 Sweetheart table!

 Jared had such a funny speech!!

 First dance. :)

 I didn't plan this one. My camera had a different idea, haha.

 Time to party!

My dad and my bubby. Look at 'em go! 

It was a wonderful night, and went too fast! I'm glad I was able to capture the majority of it through my lens before it ended though. :)

Jared & Shanna's Wedding | 8.19.12

Three weeks ago, I got to photograph my brother's wedding. Shanna's uncle did a lot of the group and ceremony shots, and I got to capture the little moments of the day which was a lot of fun and it was such a wonderful day! Pictured above are Shanna's cupcakes. She made soooo many of them, and they all turned out pretty fantastic.

The day started at 5 AM. I headed to Jared and Shanna's and got there at around 6, we got everything ready to go, and we were off to Auberge Des Gallant for the big day.

In the morning, it was pretty quiet so I grabbed my camera and took pictures around the venue. 

Butterflies were everywhere. It was so beautiful!

The ceremony area was breathtaking.

Shanna's shoes and bouquet.

Shanna's beautiful dress.

The ceremony! 

After the ceremony, they had an ice cream truck! It was such a fun wedding.

Chocolate sundae!

They rented a Mustang for a few days.. riding in style!

Off they went to the reception!

The sweet table filled with Shanna's cupcakes!

My mom made hundreds of chocolate lollipops.

First dance as a married couple. :)

It was a day filled with love and happiness, we had gorgeous weather, and honestly, nothing could have made the day better. I now have a sister-in-law who I love to death.. and my brother's pretty cool too. Hope you enjoyed the pictures. :)
