jerad + margriet {wedding}

If I had to describe this wedding in two words, they would have to be laughter and beauty.  Ever since I shot Jerad + Margriet's engagement photos back in January, I had been anticipating their big day.
It really is such an honor to photograph someone's wedding. I love part of something so intimate and HUGE from start to finish. Margriet + her gals fed and "coffee'd" me when I arrived in the morning and I got to share in the nerves and preparations with her sisters and life long friends. We met up with Jerad and his boys for their "first look," at Mill Lake. Margriet had been hoping for some blossom shots and thankfully, we caught the tail end of the blooms. It was such a gorgeous moment. From there, we headed to my aunt's back deck, (check out more of her stuff at Vintage Home), and then down to Clayburn Village to finish up portraits before heading to the ceremony and reception. We did have to dodge some rain, but the day can only be described as beautiful.
Jerad + Margriet ~ thank you for such a fabulous opportunity. Not only was your wedding lovely, but you both together are lovely. I love your that you are genuine, and so full of laughter and joy. Blessings to you both!
