Bernadette is so adorable. Check out what she gave us when we arrived (Nic got one, too)!
It included our Photographer Crack: Red Bull, as well as candy, snacks, tums and aspirin for worst case scenarios! I was a little worried when I saw the aspirin about exactly how big of a pain in the butt Bernadette was planning on being that day (he he)…but I wasn’t joking about it three hours later when I fell down a hill! (The things we’ll do to get The Shot.) :D
Bernadette was radiant:
A kiss for Taylor, Bernadette’s beloved flower girl.
I adore this shot of Tay looking on in awe as Bernadette got ready.
Another favorite shot…
Bernadette was an incredibly beautiful bride. Check out her eyes in this photo!
And over on the boys’ side…
I love going through the boys getting ready shots. They’re all a surprise to me most of the time, since I’m with the girls while Nic is with the guys. When I saw this one, it was like “High five, Nic!!!” The ring bearer getting his shirt buttons done up…holding a frog. So BOY! (I gotta brag that you can totally tell by Nic’s photography that he is a dad. He takes the best kid shots!)
One of the highlights of the day was the floral delivery. Bernadette’s bouquet made a leap into my favorite list FAST. It was amazing and gorgeous and smelled like heaven. All of the bouquets were exquisite. I highly recommend her florist, Dawn. This was Bernadette’s face as she saw Dawn carrying the flowers up the walk:
And this was why her smile was so big:
That was the bridal bouquet…next up, the bridesmaids bouquet (which looked FANTASTIC next to their brown dresses)!
And the mothers’ bouquets…
Before we left–one last pow-wow with Danielle, Bernadette’s awesome coordinator.
Coming in the next sneak: the portraits!
