For a while I was worried Jon and Stephanie’s wedding would come and go without us ever getting in touch with them. For clients who contacted us around the baby came, until now, they’ll probably agree that we’re a little bit scattered with our correspondence. Well, Jon and Steph are just as busy as we are, so that made for a difficult time getting in touch. Over the 4th of July weekend, by chance, all of us were up in the same area near their wedding site. We met at the Holden Arboretum (which was amazing!) to check it out and go over the details. Again, Mike and I were just giddy with excitement that we’d be able to shoot in such a lush, garden-y space.

We drove up on their wedding day to a constant downpour of rain. Luckily, the rain held off, and the ceremony and pictures were done outside as we originally planned. That doesn’t mean we weren’t scared of rain, just a little bit, for the events!

First dress we’ve shot from the Running of the Brides. Loved it, so perfectly vintage, and she looked amazing in it!

And the purple vintage details were just so perfect for the location AND the dress.

and so. Onto the people!

Is it strange that I’ve been hoping to shoot a bride with a veil like this for as long as I can remember?

Could we have asked for more from the couple for timing on the bridal party & love shots?! They allowed an HOUR AND A HALF for pictures. We adore when that happens!

Much love and happiness to Jon & Steph!
