Another beautiful day for another beautiful wedding. It’s getting harder and harder to do this job because I grow so close to my couples and then they go off and get married, and I hardly ever see them again! Why can’t they just hang around some more?
We had such a fun time with this couple. We started out the day at New Sweden Lutheran Church, where Kersten’s dad is the pastor. The church is a registered historic landmark and is a beautiful church both inside and out. Kersten and her mom were so filled with tears of joy, and I’m so glad they trusted to us to capture these moments. Kersten was so beautiful in her dress and she had the longest veil of any bride that we have worked with (I always say ‘the bigger, the better’). Jeff came looking ‘very dashing’ in his tux, and we took some really awesome groom images. I can’t wait for the couple to see these images!
One of the ways that this ceremony was unique was that Kersten’s dad is the man who is ‘her father, her pastor, the man who gave her away AND one of her employees‘! (He works for their Krav Maga studio). It was really funny to hear him mention this during their ceremony and it received a lot of laughs.
We then went on to the Hilton hotel and had some alone time. The skies were gorgeous and we had a nice sunset. They partied the rest of the night and had a great time.
I finally got a chance to work with Lindy from 36th Street Wedding Coordinators, and they were on top of everything. They even brought Mountain Dew to Kersten’s pre-wedding massage – how personal is that? Stafford (AKA ‘the veteran’) from Complete Music did a great job of keeping people on the dance floor and keeping the party going. The flowers from Coby Neal were precious and they lasted all night long. The couple chose only one bride’s cake from Lucy’s Cakes that was quite yummy with chocolate on the inside and white frosting on the out.
Here are some of the moments that we captured and one of my favorites from her bridal session. This small sample can not even cover how many awesome images that were captured. They have their own wedding website here, and they own Fit and Fearless Krav-Maga personal defense. I’m so excited that they chose us to be their Austin Wedding Photographer. Here is a slideshow of their wedding highlights.
