JoAnna and Chris are perfect for eachother. I like them. They like eachother, everyone is happy.
These are some of my favorite ring shots ever!



They had a quick first look before the ceremony started.





and they’re married!
for their getaway people threw lavender at them, it smelled so yummy.
i love this, someone just decided to throw the whole thing!







JoAnna looked gorgeous! Her dress also had a TON of bustle to it!
Chris and JoAnna are both scientists so their reception was science themed, I think it worked out nicely. Their tables were all named after amino acids.. 


all their plates and silverware are biodegradable! yay for eco-friendliness!
JoAnna’s mom made all of the table runners and ALL of the napkins to help add to the “green” factor!
for their ‘vases’ they borrowed beakers from a local middle school to tie into the science theme.

Cobalt blue and bright yellow seem to be so popular this season! I love the ring shot at the beginning. :)
