Kyle + Wendy {Wedding: Part 2}

 The ceremony at Kyle and Wendy's wedding was beautiful.  It was gorgeously decorated and attended by close friends and family.  Kyle's parents are passed and during the time that they would have been seated, Kyle carried two white roses to lay on the chairs that had been reserved for them.  It was so touching.  Though his parents were not there in person to witness his marriage to Wendy, they were certainly there in spirit.

Corridor Wedding Professionals Event

I recently spent the evening chatting with other wonderful wedding vendors at the Corridor Wedding Professionals Event.  The event was hosted by the Iowa Memorial Union on their gorgeous new back patio area.  The catering was provided by University of Iowa Catering and was fantastic.  So delicious!  Speilman's Event Services provided the beautiful linens.  I love the blush tones and the sequined tablecloths were gorgeous.  The floral designs were provided by Julie's Floral Fountain and were very elegant.  The photography for the evening was provided by me, and it was a pleasure to photograph this fun event.

Stuart + Marybeth {Engaged}

 

 Earlier this month, I met up with Stuart and Marybeth for their engagement session at the Lake MacBride spillway area.  It was a perfect evening for portraits, albeit a bit warm.  Golden evening sun, a gorgeous couple, and a beautiful location; it really doesn't get any better.

Kyle + Wendy {Wedding: Part 1}

At the end of August, I head to the brand new Noah's Event Center in West Des Moines to capture Wendy and Kyle's wedding day.  When I arrived, the setup was still in process and I had so much fun capturing all the beautiful details.  Wendy created a large variety of chalkboards to share information with her guests.  There was a chalkboard telling their timeline from first date to "I Do's"; a chalkboard to label the candy bar, guest book, gift table, and more; small chalkboards to reserve the parents' seating in the ceremony, and many more.  So beautiful.

Happy Brithday, L!

 

Okay, so really this post isn't possible.  It just simply cannot be.  Totally not real.  It just is not feasible that my little girl is 9.  Seriously, how did this happen?
