Jeff and I were out of town this weekend making it the 3rd weekend in a row to be on the road. This weekend's travel had us located in Scott City, KS. We arrived in town a day early to scout out locations and attend the rehearsal.







Saturday morning started with Jeff dropping me off at Renaissance Salon on fourth street before he headed over to the golf course where the guys met up for a round before they got ready later that day. The guys wore black tuxes with green ties and vests. The ladies wore strapless dresses made from a sheer green fabric with an elegant bow that went around the back and tied in the back.







Megan found her dress in Kansas City at a local boutique. One of her bridesmaids had told me her dress resembled what a Princess would wear. It was a diamond white dress with exquisite bead work throughout and gathered around the skirting, with a chapel length train. Megan accented her dress by wearing hot pink high heal shoes which nicely tied in her other wedding color.





The couple had decided to take pictures before the ceremony, so we setup a private first sight moment for them where they exchanged gifts. Megan received a diamond neckless and Aaron a Wii game system. Following pictures of the couple we moved on to the formal group shots and ended allowing them a chance to relax before the ceremony.







As guest entered the church they signed the mat of a framed engagement picture for the couple to hang in their home. There where so many guests in attendance that some of them were seated down stairs where a TV was setup so they could watch from an upstairs video camera. The ceremony started with guests watching a slideshow of Megan and Aaron growing up. Since the couple had been dating for eight years there were a number of pictures. Aaron's brother, Pastor Jason Dirks, presided over the ceremony. Before Megan came down the isle an isle runner was pulled out, revealing a wedding logo, which was used through out the day on programs and decorations at the reception.





Following the ceremony, the couple greeted guest in a receiving line. Once everyone was greeted the couple exited the church in a sea of bubbles which led to a white Ford Excursion limo. We had the limo driver follow us to a few locations, where we grabbed some more pictures of the wedding party and the couple before heading to the reception. The reception was held in a building on the Scott City fairgrounds.







Aaron and Megan made their grand entrance through a tunnel made by the wedding party, it reminded us of watching a sports team entering before the Big Game. The DJ was "Kid Brock" with Muzik Machine. The couple started with cake cutting and then grabbed a bite to eat as the guest had been served while we were shooting at the other locations. They then had toasts where all of the wedding party members had something to share. The first dance started after a few songs played and the parents joined them towards the middle of the song to dance. Megan then danced with her dad and Aaron with his mom. To kick off the dance floor for the night Megan's dad had a special dance that he did and everyone calls him "Snoop Doug" for it. It was great! The whole night was great with a room packed full of friends and family having a great time!

We want to thank you for letting us be part of your special day and making us so welcome into both families. Stay in Touch!

Tyff and Jeff

P.S. It was great to see so many of our Bride-To-Be's at and in the wedding! It was like a mini reunion for us.
