Operation "Catch Up On Blogging" is in full force this week! Up now are Jessica and Laura!
I met Jessica back in the 90s when we were students together at Lehigh University and rushing the Delta Zeta sorority. We ended up becoming sorority sisters, and Jessica was always the girl we would go to if we needed a good belly laugh. I don't know how she does it, but her happiness, positivity, and energy are contagious - more so than anyone else I have ever met. I'm guessing those are some of the things that Laura loves about her. I could tell how hard Jessica had fallen for Laura through her emails, wedding consultations, and periodic Facebook posts, but I actually didn't meet Laura in person until the morning of their wedding. As soon as I did, I saw for myself how perfect they are for each other, and how much their personalities compliment each other. Laura is just as fun and positive as Jessica - but she has a sensitivity about her that has a calming influence on Jessica that is very hard to describe in words.
I am so fortunate that they asked me to photograph their wedding celebration for them. More than that, I'm fortunate that I was able to be surrounded by all the love they have for each other. This was one of my favorite weddings to date! I was laughing and crying and smiling with them all night. Plus, their personalized decorations, bright colors, and a rendezvous with some super sweet horses made my heart sing.
I hope you enjoy this small collection of photos from their wedding day.
These awesome vendors made this amazing day possible!
