Back in October I was lucky enough to assist the lovely and talented Sarah Der with a fantastically awesome wedding. Michelle and Brandon and their wedding party couldnt have been more fun and exciting. I mean, they allotted almost 2 hours before the ceremony had even started for photos. .. I know every photographers dream right? But seriously, it was an awesome time and we were done well before it was time for the guests to arrive and the couple didnt have to rush anything. Awesome.
Brandons gift to Michelle was probably the sweetest thing Ive ever heard. He included Christmas ornaments to put on their first Christmas tree, the two that stink out to me are the ballet slipper and a grandfathers clock. The slipper because “she keeps him on his toes” and the clock because of the “time they have left on this Earth.” Seriously I was in TEARS.
Brandon is so dapper.
How Michelle arrived to the first look.
One of my favorite photos ever.
She has the prettiest green eyes ever.
When Sarah told me where the wedding was, the Doubletree Hotel in Durham I wondered what it would be like..but it was seriously a great little hidden gem. A lovely spot to get married at.
Oh and PS: my iphone saved their first dance as the DJ hadnt included their song. Smart phone + youtube ftw!
Can anyone tell me what song this is?
Sarah, it was awesome. Thanks for having me along.
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.
