Ah, where to start?! It’s such a wonderful thing when a bride and groom are so excited about each other that their wedding day is just another detail to get them to forever together. These two were so excited about marriage, not just a wedding day. And what a joy that is!
I felt that way about Laura and Chris from the beginning. Nothing could stop their excitement and really their joy from the day was fueled by the fact they would be leaving as husband and wife. Every detail was perfect and beautiful and well thought-out, but even through all of the details, Laura and Chris just had eyes for each other. These two were so content just being together.
As you can see, Laura and Chris had a stunningly beautiful day! I think many of us could agree that our favorite detail was Laura’s dress. She did some picking and choosing for the final design, and I must say, I don’t think she could have come up with a more fabulous gown for the big day. And as usual, the first look was among my top loves of the day. I can’t tell you how much I love being behind the camera in those quiet, timeless, moments.
Go see for yourself just how literally perfect it was…
