Sarah & Aaron wedding: Extreme weather, extremely adorable together!!!

Sarah and Aaron were my first couple for a few things.  Let’s see:

1. First couple to book me before they were engaged.

2. First couple to have shot in the extreme cold…and the extreme heat.

3. First couple to BOTH be wearing glasses on their wedding day.

4. First couple to not have a bridal party.

5. First couple to have taken dance lessons in preparation for their first trot around the dance floor as husband and wife. 

Needless to say, their wedding in late June was very special. J Sarah and I share a friend… my dear pal, Paige, whose wedding I shot last April. Sarah was one of Paige’s bridesmaids, and Paige came all the way back from Georgia for the wedding. And much to my delight, she assisted me..and SARAH!…for the whole day.

 What? You want pictures? OK, already!!! I should warn you, this might be a long post because Sarah and Aaron have been sooo patient with me through the tech probs…they get extra! :

 

 

 I LOVE these ring shots. J

                 

 

 

 

  

Something borrowed…

 Sarah had planned a good amount of time in the afternoon to devote to some bridals. Here are some of my faves. This first one is at the hotel (capitol plaza), but the rest are at the Missouri Capitol.

 

 A favorite of mine…because it’s so Sarah.

 

                  

 

  

 

 

 And then it was go time…almost. Aaron helped get the men ready.

 

 

 

  

There may have been some trouble getting Sarah’s ring on. That’s what humidity and nerves do to brides…

 

  

 

Love the image of Aaron. That’s a look of a happy man, folks!

 

Of to the reception at Donita’s Catering in Jefferson City. Sarah’s dad might have embarrassed her. I have no idea if that is true or not though…

 

 

 That first dance I was talking about?? And the band who played the reception….Larriot

 

And I haven’t mentioned this yet…but Sarah’s mom was a blast. She did NOT let any music go to waste. I have proof!

 All the guests REALLy got into the kickin’ music. I loved it! Here is just one…because let’s be frank…this post is LOOONNNGGG!!

 

 It was a FABULOUS (and hot!!) day! The Mr. & Mrs. are currently in Switzerland for their honeymoon right now… and I’m so jealous!! Thank you very much to all the Weeks, Forcks and everyone in between. Paige and I had such a good time!
