My sister and friends have been asking me when I'm going to post the rest of Jennifer and Adam's wedding after I posted this sneak peek. They are in love with Jennifer's veil. Sadly, folks, it's not for sale. Jennifer's very talented mom made it. She also is the brains behind this wedding and helped coordinate it along with her good girlfriend.
It was such a lovely day and I really love so many of the wedding's details. Instead of guest favors, they donated to charity. They placed vintage family wedding photos on each table for the guests, and Jennifer wore the same necklace her mother wore to her wedding. Since both the bride and groom's fathers' birthdays are in January, Jennifer and Adam delivered special cake and pie to them as the guests sang "Happy Birthday." Instead of one cake to be sliced for the guests, each table had a cake for the guests to cut. It was a great icebreaker.
Meaningful heirloom items and thoughtful touches really elevate a wedding into a classy affair. Speaking of class, Jennifer is the epitome of sophistication and elegance, and Adam's adoration of her is so awe-inspiring. Everybody should have a special someone who looks at them the same way Adam looks at Jennifer.
So sit back, grab a cup of hot cocoa and feast your eyes on Jennifer and Adam's lovely affair. There are a ton of photos. :) Also, check out the slideshow afterward, which has even more photos.
I'd like to give a shout-out to my talented second photographer, Maggie Rife. Eleven of her photos are part of the following slideshow and a few above: slideshow.
