Yay, it’s finally Friday but really I’m actually more excited about sharing a post of this delightful wedding we recently photographed! Ever since we shot Carder and Kelsey’s engagement session, we’ve been so psyched for this wedding. They are such a fun couple and I knew that their vision for their wedding would fit perfectly with our style. I love brides like Kelsey who can think out of the box and make a simple but unique venue like the Sheerar Museum and Community Center here in Stillwater truly special and memorable to their guests.

Kelsey picked out some stylish invitations from Wedding Chicks which is an awesome resource for DIY Brides. And when we arrived, we met up with Kelsey and all the girls in a nice big bright room in the community center, taking their time and enjoying getting ready. But then when we hopped over to check on the guys we were surprised to see that they were trying on each other’s pants and hemming others! But Carder seemed calm and collected as always, so no need to sweat I guess and his mom was there to the rescue, LOL. I love laid back wedding like this. :)

The boys obviously sorted out their suits because they looked great! I love the feather boutonnieres that Kelsey made. They go great with the light gray suits and the fun airy feel of the wedding.

And the girls looked stellar in their mismatched bridesmaid dresses. I always love the look of a wedding party when the bridesmaid’s get to pick out their own dresses. Plus I bet they’re excited that they can actually wear their dresses again. Carder and Kelsey decided to have their moment together before they got swept up in the hubbub of the day. The first glance is my favourite part of the day. I think it’s the most emotional part and it’s the point in the day where we go from the foggy disbelief that the day is finally here to the the dizzying events of the day. Plus these two are such a cute couple! ♥

I still can’t get over the flowers at this wedding! Thorn Originals created the most perfect whimsical bouquets and floral decor. I would love to wake up to these every morning!

The reception was filled with cheerful vintage and personal decorations. I love their personal touches like their photos posted on window shutters and scattered amoung the centerpieces, and how they incorporated their love of music by creating a Wedding music CD as a favour.

Their cake is so sweet {pun intended}!I love the simple silhouette topper. Rosebeary’s Designs did an amazing job and it tasted great too. But apparently nothing compares to Carder’s grandmother’s buttermilk pies which went too fast for me to test.

Congrats Carder and Kelsey! We’re so glad that you chose us to capture your special day and celebrate your wedding with you. It was wonderful meeting you and your families. Make sure to stop by their Client Site and check out the slideshow for more photos. Have an awesome weekend!

Sneeeak peeeek time! This past weekend was our first time to shoot a wedding at the Sheerar Museum right here in Stillwater. Carder & Kelsey’s wedding was truly beautiful! Their fun wedding details and the location itself made it even more unique.

Kelsey looked gorgeous in her laced and beaded wedding dress and Carder looked dapper in his gray suit. :) And holy cow! Kelsey’s bouquet…Wow! Thorn Originals did such an awesome job on all the fresh florals. Love the colors! ♥

Be sure to stop on back in a couple weeks for the full post of this handsome couple’s wedding! Have an awesome week!

Happy Tuesday folks! It’s not a normal blogging day but I just couldn’t wait to share these heartwarming photos from Chris & Sarah’s wedding we recently shot in Ponca City, Oklahoma. I love how everything was planned with their families in mind from their local church to a reception at their parent’s home. We started off the day meeting this sweet couple at the church to get ready for their big day!

Once Chris and Sarah finished getting ready at the church, they travelled separately to a nearby park in order to take advantage of the beautiful weather. I still can’t get over how stunning Sarah looked in her Sottero & Midgley gown. And I just love that she put her hair up into gorgeous curls at Genesis Hair Salon in town.

And I was actually shocked (in a good way!) when Chris showed up in a pristine white three piece suit! This is actually our first shoot where the groom also wore white and I hope it’s not our last. Doesn’t he look so sharp!?

What I love about the most when a couple opts for a first glance is witnessing the couple sharing their thoughts and emotions that are only revealed when seeing each other all dressed up in a private location. ♥ And these two are such a cute couple to watch!

It was such an adorable idea to have a “ring bear” carry the rings. We haven’t seen it done this way before, another first. And the gorgeous flowers were so bright and bloomy, perfect for a spring wedding.

These gem colored bridesmaid dresses are so lovely and fun. Sarah even got them cute gem colored hair pins to go with their outfits.

The pink ombre rose cake from A Sweet Success was quite a treat with each layer packed with a different flavor! And did I mention that Sarah’s mom is so awesome to have cooked all the delicious food for the guest!? Ain’t that so sweet!?

Congrats Chris & Sarah! We’re so glad that you chose us to capture your special day and celebrate your wedding with you. It was wonderful meeting your friends and your families. Make sure to stop by their Client Site and check out the slideshow for more photos. Have and awesome week y’all!

Good Friday Morning to you all! We have a special wedding to share with you that’s full of life and full of love! I love how Rob & Robyn found that perfect balance of timeless tradition with a healthy dose of partying! I couldn’t have asked for a better wedding to kick off our 2013 wedding season.

Robyn had such a pretty gown. I love the appliques and floral belt and I love how a puffy tulle skirt turns a bride into a princess. ♥ The girls all stayed the night in a hotel here in Stillwater and were up early prettying themselves up. They all helped each other out with doing their own make-up and hair.

I always think it’s smart when a bride decides to go with a pair of flats. There’s no reason you need to torture your feet on your wedding day! And what’s even better? Going with a cute pair of Vera Wang flats. ♥

While getting into their wedding garb at the church in Perry, and before seeing each other, they did a letter exchange. Rob even gave Robyn one last gift before tying the knot! How sweet! ♥

I love that Rob wore a gray suit to contrast against the rest of the boys. And the girls looks so cute in their coral dresses!

Oh I love her bouquet! Many of my favourite bouquets I’ve seen have come from Colonial Florist. Robyn had the idea to take their first photo together before seeing each other. How cute!

You know how we feel about a first glance during the wedding day. It was so sweet seeing their expressions when they finally got to see each other and it was beautiful watching it unfold in such a marvelous church. These two lovebirds are definitely meant to be together!

The ceremony took place in the magnificent St. Rose of Lima Catholic Church in Perry. I’m so glad the wedding took place during the day so that everyone could enjoy the colorful glow of the stained glass windows. It was amazing watching the ceremony unfold beneath the large golden dome.

Time to head off in style in…an RV! How cool is that? Most of the groomsmen are form out of town but instead of flying in, they rented an RV and were slowly picked up as it made it’s way to Oklahoma. It’s awesome that they incorporated it into their day!

This was the first wedding we’ve attended that had a pre-party to the party. When we found out there was a quick stop at their favourite pub in town, the Copper Penny, I knew we were in for a fun night!

After a few celebratory shots at the bar, everyone hopped over to a classy reception held at Meditations. Ready to party, they jumped right into the first dance. Patrick from DJ Connection did an awesome job at getting the dance floor hopping!

As favours, Robyn put together jars filled with ingredients to make cookies. Edible favours are always crowd pleasers! You can never go wrong with a classic white wedding cake! I love the pearl borders and dot design. Cake Crazy always makes delicious cakes and the groom’s cake is so unique and fun too.

As if the reception wasn’t fun enough, Rob & Robyn rented a real photobooth from Route 66 Photobooth! Everyone loves a photobooth {especially after a few drinks!} And it’s a great way to get photos of all of your guests.

I feel I need to explain this next photo, LOL! The boys got a work out showing off their mad skills dancing the alligator dance!

Congrats Rob & Robyn! We’re so glad that you chose us to capture your special day and celebrate your wedding with you. It was wonderful meeting you and your families. Make sure to stop by their Client Site and check out the slideshow for more photos. Have and awesome weekend and happy Spring!

Sneak peek time! This past weekend we headed up to Ponca City here in Oklahoma to shoot a beautiful church wedding. You would understand how much fun it was if you ever get the pleasure to meet Chris and Sarah. Sarah is so kindhearted and Chris kept cracking us up all day!

I still can’t get over how great they looked! Chris is actually the first groom we’ve photographed with a white suit! He looked so sharp. And Sarah looked absolutely radiant in her Sottero & Midgley gown!

It was such a lovely wedding and with the reception held at Sarah’s folk’s house, you could almost touch all the love and support that radiated. Be sure to stop on back in a couple weeks for the full post of this handsome couple’s wedding! Have an awesome week!

Sneak peek time! This past weekend we started off our wedding season with a lively wedding spanning Perry and Stillwater Oklahoma. This couple is so happy and carefree and the day was so much fun because of all of Rob & Robyn’s friends and family who genuinely came to support and celebrate with them. It was the perfect wedding to get us in the spirit of wedding season!

The day started early at a hotel here in Stillwater with everyone prettying up before jetting off to the magnificent St. Rose of Lima Catholic Church in Perry, OK. I love all the ruffles and beading on Robyn’s gown. She looked so gorgeous and I was sure that Rob was getting antsy during their first glance!

After the ceremony, the entire wedding crew hopped into an RV {now that’s riding in style!} to travel back to Stillwater and hit the Strip for a pre-reception celebration at their favorite regular hangout, the Copper Penny! After sharing a few drinks with friends, these two lovebirds ventured on to meet the rest of their family and friends at their buzzing reception at Meditations.

Man, these kids know how to party! Make sure you stop on back in a couple weeks for the full post. Enjoy the rest of your week. Happy Monday!

Happy Monday Friends! We are so excited to be posting our last wedding from 2012! It was so much fun shooting this wedding because we got the opportunity to travel to Greenwood, Arkansas just outside of Fort Smith. Looking through the photos, I still can’t get over the great luck we had with the perfect weather! It was such a treat to be able to take some photos outside in warm sunshine in late December. But the best part of the day was definitely spending the day with Brad & Angela! They are so kindhearted and sweet to eachother. ♥ We started the day off by meeting all the girls at Split Endz Salon.

I love the dress Angela picked out from Pomp & Pageantry back in Oklahoma where they met. The beading on the bodice is so pretty and regal. And the lace and beading down the train was quite lovely. I love how airy and princessy it looks!

Angela looked so radiant and elegant in her gown on her day! I can’t get over these photos of this ravishing bride on the cliff overlooking the town below! And brad looked very sharp in his three-piece suit. What a great smile!

You know how we feel about a first glance during the wedding day. It was so sweet seeing their expressions when they finally got to see each other and it was so stunning watching it unfold on the bluff. These two lovebirds are definitely meant to be together!

I love their choice of pink as their wedding colour. The bright pop of colour jazzed up the classic cut of the bridesmaid dresses from The Rose Dress and groomsmen’s suits picked from N Style Revue perfectly. Scott and I had such a great time hanging out with this wedding party! We feel like we picked up a couple new friends!

Angela is originally from China and Brad is from Arkansas. You can read more about them on their engagement shoot that we blogged! It was so sweet that her minister back in Oklahoma traveled to Arkansas to walk her down the aisle since her parents could not attend. But in the true spirit of a modern wedding, her parents and family attended as guests through a laptop set on the side rail.

The ceremony at the First Baptist Church of Jenny Lind in Greenwood was so touching. It was decorated with the joyful spirit of Christmas. After the ceremony we all headed next door for a cheerful reception with close family and friends attending.

Brad’s cousin Tara is very talented indeed! She did a great job on the wedding cake! I love the Chinese topper. And a Razorbacks groom’s cake was perfect for Brad! They even had Razorback branded mints!

Congrats Brad and Angela! We’re so glad that you brought us to your wedding in Arkansas to capture your special day and celebrate your wedding with you. It was wonderful getting to know you and your families better. Make sure to stop by their Client Site and check out the slideshow for more photos. Enjoy the weekend!

Happy Sunday y’all! I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend! We’re so excited about this wedding that we’ve been working into the weekend because we couldn’t wait any longer to post it. Heath and Haley recently got hitched at The Home Place Country Estate in Meno, OK and we’re so glad that they picked us to capture their beautiful barn wedding.

I love the classic shape and ruffles on Haley’s wedding gown from The Bridal Shop. And I thought it was cool that The Home Place has this fun little split trailer for the girls and boys to get ready in.

Haley’s wedding shoes were fabulous…Toms! And they were pretty lacey ones! I always think it’s a great idea to wear a fun pair of flats on your wedding day. No bride wants to be nursing sore feet on their special day!

Miranda from Patton’s Hair Salon did all the girls hair giving them dynamite do’s! I love that she gave Haley some delightul golden curls!

Heath is currently going to med-school in the Bahamas and it was actually in that beautiful country that he surprised Haley by popping the question. Haley hadn’t seen Heath for a whole month, so she decided to fly down to St. Charles to visit. Little did she know, Heath was planning out the proposal with his friend. So one day he had his friend plant the ring inside of a large sea shell on the beach…

When they came upon the shell, he told Haley to go take a look at it. She was afraid at what might be inside so kicked it over with her foot. To her surprise it was a ring. At that moment Heath got down on one knee and asked her to marry him! She never saw it coming and said YES of course! Don’t they look so great together?! Haley makes an absolutely gorgeous bride and Heath looked quite dashing in his suit!

One of the DIY details on this wedding was actually all the bouquets and centerpieces! Lilies were bought wholesale from Greenleaf Florist and put together by Heath and Haley’s moms. I think they did an awesome job to think they had to put everything together that morning to keep them fresh. The flowers, cool crisp air, and sunshine almost made me feel like I was at a Spring wedding! The girls were so fun and adorable. I like how their choice of black and gold as wedding colours set the tone of a classy wedding and contrasting it with this cool rustic location made it really fun.

Heath and all the boys together looked really sharp in their tuxes also from The Bridal Shop. And I love that there is an old brick silo on the property!

The Home Place is a brand new venue here in Oklahoma and it was a real treat to be one of the first to photograph a wedding here. We totally lucked out on the weather because it was a bright, sunny and warm day which can be rare for the middle of December. The actual ceremony was still held inside though since the evenings are very cold.

Strings of hundreds of lights were draped over the ceiling which gave a friendly cozy feel. They also rented a set of french doors from Donna’s Wedding Rental to set the space apart. I love the atmosphere and like that they kept it simple.

The wedding cake from Bev’s Cakes has a great clean design. Don’t worry, the cake topper was on backwards on purpose as a joke, lol! And enough cupcakes to last through the night! I love the lit up cake and bar signs made by Heath himself. He’s quite a handy guy! I’m always so impressed when the groom helps out with the DIY details.

Jim Hunt from A&J Mobile DeeJay kept the party going with some killer dance hits! And I’ve never seen country dancing as lively as the folks at this reception! It was a blast!

Congrats Heath and Haley! We’re so glad that you chose us to capture your special day and celebrate your wedding with you. It was wonderful meeting you and your families. Make sure to stop by their Client Site and check out the slideshow for more photos. Enjoy the weekend!

Happy New Year everyone! It’s funny how it feels like last year went by so fast and yet when you look back on it month by month, you realize that you packed a ton of stuff into those days as they whizzed by. Other than all the weddings, engagements, and special events we experienced with our clients, the biggest milestone this year was Scott going full-time on our business. This helped 2012 be an awesome year for us, and as we think back on it, we are even more excited about what 2013 holds for us! Anyway, while we looked back on all of our shoots this year, we pulled out some that sparked our memories or gave us a smile and we want to share them with you! Big thanks to all our clients, fans, and friends who never stopped believing in us! This is what we love to do and you all made it possible. We are so honoured you picked us. Thank you, thank you, thank you…you all are amazing! ♥

Sneak peek time! This past weekend we headed over to Greenwood, Arkansas just outside of Fort Smith to shoot a church wedding. It was so much fun because it’s our first wedding in the state of Arkansas and this couple, Brad and Angela, are a fun laid back couple!

We totally lucked out on the weather! I bet you would never have guessed that these pictures were taken just last weekend in the middle of December. We absolutely had to take advantage of the warm glowing sunshine to head out for some photos in the park. And what a park! I never imagined that we would be photographing on the edge of a cliff overlooking the small town below! Awww, Angela was so gorgeous! ♥

Don’t they look so great together?! You may remember then from their Gardens Engagement Shoot this past fall. Love them!

It was so much fun taking this road trip to Arkansas to shoot the wedding of this kind-hearted and handsome couple. Be sure to stop on back in a couple weeks for the full post. Have an awesome weekend and Happy New Year!
