Carie & Peter - Wedding

The clouds parted just seconds before the ceremony music started, and Carie and Peter were blessed with beautiful sunshine and a comfortable sixty degrees for their outdoor wedding at Country Springs April 19th.

The day was filled with all the important beats: new memories made with family and friends, a nervous bride and a happy groom, a joyous celebration, and tender moments of the marriage torch being passed on from one generation to the next.

Here are some of my favorites:

Obviously, THE DRESS:


Carie was so excited and nervous getting ready. The anticipation is one of the best parts I get to witness:


Everyone was impressed that she walked in these shoes:


There is just something about this shot of Carie waiting for the car to come around that I love:


The processing on this picture isn't what the wedding felt like at all, but for this one shot, it really was just asking for it. Carie's grandpa waiting for the ceremony to start:


Carie's little girl, Libby, was an absolute doll. I just loved this moment when she turned around a stole a look at her mom before walking down the aisle herself:


A Beautiful Day:


This was a great moment when Carie's uncle (who did a great job officiating) accidentally called Peter by his brother's name:


Married!:


A few steps later, it hits them:


We had some fun in the area of Country Springs that they use for their Christmas lights show. They had this cute little miniature church to play with:



Gotta have a ring shot:


First Dance:


Check out the highlights from the day below. If you are especially sharp-eyed, you'll catch a cute shot of one of my former couples, the ones I actually owe this wedding to, they referred Carie and Peter to me. Points to whomever can guess which couple it is!
