We met Molly and Jordan's mom, Darla, at the January bridal fair earlier this year. Jeff and I remember when she came to our booth and she had said she genuinely wanted us as her wedding photographers. She had seen our portfolio online and seen our blog with different wedding debuts. Once we asked when her wedding date was she heard the hesitation in our voice. Her wedding date was planned in stone for Friday of the set up day of the bridal fair. Jeff and I knew we couldn't do a wedding on the Saturday during the bridal fair. We told her we could document her wedding day and have Brett, our other photographer, along with Alex, our photographer's assistant set up our booth. Molly later contacted us and said she would love it if we could document her wedding. We are very pleased that we did.







We started the day 8 a.m. at the golf course in Hesston where Jordan and five groomsmen played an eighteen hole round of golf. After a few holes Jeff and I headed over to the church in Newton, Grace Community Church where the ladies were getting their hair done at in the nursery. Once three of the seven ladies had their hair done along with Molly's hair they all hopped in a car and went to Beau Monde Spa and Boutique for Molly's make-up to be applied. Then it was time to head back to Newton for Molly and the ladies to get in their dresses.







Molly's dress was a Maggie Sottero with lace and beadwork throughout and a corset back that laced up. Molly's colors were red, brown and aqua. Her details blew me away from the programs handmade, her own monogram, her shoes and bridesmaids shoes, gifts to the bridesmaids and the reception was "AMAZING!". I will get to the reception later down through the write up. Molly and Jordan decided to see each other beforehand and take pictures around Newton and come back to the church for family photos. That is what we did after documenting them seeing each other we went to a field, train depot, small garden and a coffee shop.







As we headed back to the church we saw some rain coming, which by the way is "GOOD LUCK" if it rains on your wedding day! Across the street from the church was a newer golf course where we were able to get some really awesome shots of the two of them. After the family photos Molly and Jordan had plenty of time before the ceremony began, 7:30. The ceremony was very low light and romantic. After the ceremony guests headed over to the hall of the church where the reception took place. They had a fruit and cheese bar, cookie bar, candy bar, fruit tarts and creme puff bar, and the hit of them all was the COFFEE BAR! That was a first to see a coffee bar at a reception. When they arrived at the reception they cut their cake and had their toasts. They also had a slideshow that guests got to enjoy watching. A little after 10:00 they had a grand exit of them leaving through a sea of people with bubbles.





We want to thank you for letting us document your wedding day. We had a blast getting to know you and we hope you Stay in Touch!

Friday morning Jeff went to cover Dan with the guys as they played Home Run Derby and I went to document Catie as she got her hair done by her mom who was the stylist. When I left the salon, Hair Force, I was able to get to the church, St. Vincent de Paul in Andover, before Catie and the ladies showed up.



Catie had her wedding attire locked up in the bridal room. The lady from the office of the church was kind enough to let me in so I could capture some amazing detail shots of Catie's dress, veil, shoes and necklace. Catie's dress was from the Alfred Angelo designer dresses. It had bead work on the bodice with chiffon material. The ladies all wore chocolate brown and aqua dresses. The guys all had brown tuxes with aqua tie and vests. As soon as Catie arrived at the church she applied her make-up and her mom helped her get into her dress. Catie and Dan had decided to not see each other. We had plenty of time to get pictures of Catie and Dan with the bridesmaids and groomsmen before the ceremony leaving an hour to relax.







Dan played some pool down in the basement as the ladies hung out in the bride's room. Before the ceremony guests arrived and signed the signature guestbook that we designed from Catie and Dan's engagement session. When the ceremony started, the bridesmaids and groomsmen came in opposite doors and met in the middle to walk together down the aisle. Catie was escorted into the sanctuary by her dad and stepdad. Pastor Mike went over how Catie and Dan met and how their relationship grew and still continue to grow. After the ceremony we finished up the family pictures and then did pictures of the two of them together.



The reception was held at the church in The Ville. The DJ announced the wedding party along with a grand entrance of Catie and Dan down the staircase to their reception. The wedding party grabbed a bite to eat and then cut their cake. Their cake was a 4-tiered brown and aqua in color with different designs on each layer. Their cake topper was a upper case cursive "R". Following was the toast done by the best man. After that the dance was kicked off with Catie and Dan's first dance as husband and wife. Catie then danced with her dad along with her step dad and Dan danced with his mom. Catie and Dan seemed to have a great time spending time with friends and family.





We want to thank you both for allowing us to document your day. You guys are a very sweet couple. Stay in Touch!

Jeff and I got up Saturday morning and drove to Hutchinson, KS for Travis and Megan's wedding. We started at the Headturners Salon where Megan and her three bridesmaids, flower girl and both mothers got their hair done and make-up applied. After they were all beautified the ladies headed over to the church, Our Redeemer Lutheran Church. Megan had found her dress at Davids bridal and it was a strapless with lots of beadwork and sequence throughout. Travis wore a white tux with a navy blue vest and tie. The groomsmen all wore black tuxes and blue vests and ties. The ladies all carried red bouquets. The theme of red, white and blue was carried throughout the day. The wedding rings were very unique. Travis had his grandpa's ring melted down and redesigned using white gold and same design as his grandpa's.





Megan had planned her day to make sure they had lots of time to get pictures of the two of them as well as the wedding party and go to different locations. And that is what we did. After Travis and Megan had their private moment together we went around to different locations including the Fire Station #3 Dept. where Travis works. The few rain showers didn't dampen their spirits. In fact for a July day it was very cool, 65 degrees (Quite a switch from 104 degrees a week ago. But that is KS). With umbrellas and staying out of the rain Megan's hair didn't even move. Sally, the hair stylist, did a good job of making sure it was well hair sprayed. After coming back to the church we finished up family pics and then gave them some time to relax before their guests started to arrive for the ceremony.







After the guests were all seated they had a slide show that played of the two of them growing up. After the ceremony guests grabbed a container of bubbles on the way out and made a path for Megan and Travis to walk through to a 1919 Antique Fire Truck. Travis cranked the siren as they drove off. They rode on it to their reception which was held at the Encampment building on the Fairgrounds in Hutch. The DJ's were Rick and Rondi with DB Extreme who are Travis's aunt and uncle. They announced each wedding party member saying something special about them and how they knew and met Megan and Travis. After being announced they had a bite to eat and mingled with guests before the cutting of their cake.









The wedding cake was tiered, white with red paisleys on it. The groom's cake was a fire engine covered in frosting and it actually made noise too. The fire engine sat beside a white cake that had frosting in shapes of flames on the cake. There was a firefighter climbing a ladder to the top where his wife awaited. It was very unique and fun. When Megan decided to toss her bouquet the little did she know that Travis was going to come in dressed in his fireman gear to take off the garter. Rick, the DJ, had it all planned out to have a puff of smoke fill the dance floor and say, "I think we have a problem! Is there a fire fighter in the room?" This was Travis's que to enter the room dressed in fire helmet, coat and pants. Megan was totally surprised. Rick and Rondi also do one of the best grand marches to start off the first dances. Megan and Travis danced to Amazed by Lonestar with each one narrating their love to one another. Megan then danced with her dad and Travis with his mom. The night continued with people dancing and having a great time.





We want to thank you guys for choosing us as your photographers to document your wedding day. You guys were good sports even though it was rainy. And like you said Megan, "Rain is good luck." We hope you had a safe flight on the plane and got plenty of sleep before getting to spend your honeymoon in Jamaica.

Friday morning Jeff and I traveled just up the road to Newton, KS. Jennifer got her hair done at Gina's Hair Salon on Main Street in Newton not to far from the church, Newton Bible Church. Jennifer had planned her day very relaxed and allowed lots of time to get ready so it wasn't rushed. Her colors were marine blue, silver and accents of red used in the bouquets and boutonniere's. The bridesmaids wore floor length marine blue dresses. Her dress was found at David's Bridal. It was satin with accents of beadwork and a chapel length train.







Jennifer is one of eight sisters who all played a role in the wedding. She had 6 bridesmaids, 2 junior bridesmaids and 2 flower girls. The groomsmen were all dressed in black tuxes with blue vests and ties. Jennifer and Kenton did choose to see each other beforehand to get all the pictures done. We were able to document their special moment together and then we had them hop in our car to go around to different locations in Newton to get some really awesome shots. A few pictures in a field, on the Bethel campus and a unique architecture place were just a few spots that we were able to stop at.







Then it was time to get them back to the church so we could finish up with the wedding party and family. Finishing up pictures an hour before the ceremony allowed plenty of time for both Jennifer and Kenton to grab a sandwich and relax. The ceremony was very romantic with lights and tulle running down each side of the center aisle and candles lit at the front of the church. After the ceremony as guests headed to the church's hall where the reception took place, Jennifer and Kenton gathered with close family members in a room to wait to enter into their reception. Friends and family lined up to get a special desert that was absolutely divine. Each guest got a heart shaped devil's chocolate food cake with chocolate syrup drizzled and powdered white sugar sprinkled over the top. Jennifer and Kenton had a 10 inch round white cake with a monogram of their initials on top. Kenton used a plasma torch to cut a circle with JK on it out of metal. It made for a great cake topper for their wedding. After they cut their cake both the dads did a dedication speech to Jennifer and Kenton saying how proud they are of both of them. Shortly after the speeches Jennifer tossed her bouquet. One cool thing that I learned later in the day was the ceremony was broadcasted over an Apple laptop that sat in the front pew and streamed via IChat. This allowed some of Jennifer and Kenton's close friends who weren't able to make it from Wyoming to watch the wedding.





During the reception Jennifer came up to me and said I will be right back cause they were going to IChat their friends that were in Wyoming. They are very close to Jennifer and Kenton and understood they couldn't make it to the wedding but took the time out to say hi on their special day. I thought that was very cool! They then mingled with guests until the limo arrived to pick them up. Guests grabbed a sparkler and lit them as Jennifer and Kenton made their way to the limo through a shower of sparks.



We want to thank you guys for allowing us be part of your special day. We had so much fun hanging out with you guys and documenting. Hope you have fun in Tennessee! Stay in Touch!
