Katie & Ryan {Oregon Wedding Photography}

I was the second for Jay Eads at Katie and Ryan's wedding, held at the Country Inn. It was a truly beautiful day, albeit scorching hot. I felt really honored to witness the very obvious love and devotion these two have for each other. Thanks for letting me tag along, Jay! :) Here are some of my favorite images from the day.

Katie was so elegant. 100 degree weather? She might as well have been in her own air-conditioned bubble for how perfect she looked.

[Sigh]

 

Jeff & Michelle {Seattle Wedding Photography}

It was so much fun to hang out with this great couple, Jeff & Michelle, during their wedding weekend. Anyone could see just by looking at the two of them how in love they are - I'm not gonna lie, I teared up during the ceremony and even during the reception. Both of their families, as well as the entire wedding party were just the nicest people - and the wedding was full of so many creative and beautiful details - breakfast for dinner, a gorgeous purple & green theme (complete with purple vans for the groomsmen, and purple and green candies on the cake table), lovely flower arrangements... the list goes on and on!

Now, Michelle is beautiful even without makeup. But both her mom and Jeff's mom cried when they saw her all made up.

Matt, Jeff's brother, officiated the wedding - he was ordained online!

The couple wrote their own vows.

Jeff's ring is made of tungsten - it matches his gun holster.

Michelle designed a lot of the wedding's most fun details - she made the I-Spy placecards and the invitations, and she and her aunt made the purple hanging decorations that adorned the vases forming the arch for the ceremony. The cake topper is so cute - Michelle & Jeff are both US Marshals, so it's very fitting.

"all the single ladies! all the single ladies!" I never realized how much fun that song could be.

What a beautiful night! I wish you both all the happiness in the world.
