Katie & Sam
This day felt a little extra special to be a part of since I’ve known Sam since we were kids! To not only get to watch him marry the love of his life, but document their sweet relationship was a privilege 🤍
I wanted to highlight Katie and Sam’s first look and private vows. It was one of my favorite parts of the day- I loved watching their emotions as they centered on the foundations of their relationship before stepping into their wedding ceremony. The peaceful setting next to the water with the breeze coming through the trees made everything feel just perfect.
The two chose a more modern color palette with touches of vintage. I loved Katie’s dress with its lace overlay and low back. It was complimented so beautifully by the greens and plums of the decor and florals.
From sweet vows to moves on the dance floor, this day was so beautiful and fun from start to finish. I couldn’t be happier for these two or more honored to have witnessed the start of this next journey. Congrats again you two 🤍
