Where to even begin! These two were an absolute joy to work with. Even with it being 90 degrees and humid, you’d never guess it because their outlook on the day remained so positive and upbeat!

The ceremony was laid back and officiated by one of Michelle’s close friends who still likes to refer to her by her middle school AOL screen name. Did we all not have the most ridiculous screen names or what?!

Michelle and John were surrounded by their closest friends and family on this special day. A locket with a photo of Michelle’s late father was tied to her bouquet where he would be close to her heart. Michelle’s mother gave a beautiful, emotional speech, and it was impossible to keep from tearing up when she said that he had lived to be Michelle’s father. His presence and love of family was definitely felt throughout the day in ways that touched everyone in the ceremony.

I don’t think I’ve ever shared so many reception photos on my blog, but this wedding reception was just so much fun! The maid of honor and best man’s speeches were some of my favorite moments. The stories they shared had the entire room laughing and were genuine proof of just how funny, smart and wonderful Michelle and John really are.

Michelle and John, we loved every minute of our time with you! Thank you for making us feel like part of your family for the day! I’m so excited for you to see all the photos, but for now, here are just a few of my many favorites!
