Everything about Jared and Courtney’s big day was spectacular! I loved every minute of it… but the show stopper was the surprise fireworks show that happened during the reception. Only about 5 people knew about it and so everyone was shocked!! What an amazing and unforgettable event!!

One of my favorite parts of Jared and Courtney’s story is that they met in a class at William and Mary and the professor of that class was AT THE WEDDING! It was so cute! He even joined in for the W&M group photo at the end of the evening! Throughout the day, I loved watching Jared and Courtney enjoy seeing their day unfold. It’s always exciting to see someone’s dreams coming true. Courtney walked into their reception for the first time and was just in awe of all that her vendors had done. We had a very talented team working alongside of us and we loved every minute of it!

Jared and Courtney, I know you are about to fly out to Jamaica and my goal is to get this up before your plane departs so that you relive your wedding day over and over again as you travel to your tropical honeymoon destination! Enjoy your time away! You two are such an amazing couple. The more I look at your images, the more I see your love for one another and that makes me so happy!! Congratulations you two! Michael and I are so excited for you and this new season of life! Enjoy your blog post!! :) xoxoxo

I had a BALL shooting all of these details!  I’ve loved Courtney’s ring since her engagement session!! Seriously, there were more monograms at this wedding than I’ve seen in a lifetime! And I’m thinking I may need my own version of these custom Jack Rogers!
I’m not a huge garter fan…  I just never see many that I love but I adore this one!! Perfect hair! Annnnd she got diamonds!! Jared surprised her with a second wedding band! And Jared got an awesome new watch!  Oh Courtney you’re radiant!!!  So gorgeous!!! The sweetest first look! I love looking through images after the wedding day and finding shots like this one… This couldn’t have been more perfect!  LOVE Michael’s angle!! Such a joyful portrait… I think I said something along the lines of “You’re getting married in ONE HOUR!!” right before I took this! ;) Wowww! Looking good bridal party!  Oh this foyer…. it was a dream!! Cutie!  MARRIED!!!! Her grandparent’s wedding rings were tied to her bouquet:) Loved this Ombre place setting display!! Courtney seeing her reception for the first time :)  It was gorgeous!  Believe it or not, this is a cake…. a red velvet cake! The groom has a thing for Chipotle!! YAY! Firework time! Congratulations you two!!
