Welcome to one of my favorite weddings of all time. Like ever, ever EVERRRRRRRR. Mostly? Well, Andrew and Donna’ swedding at the Barns at Wesleyan Hills is the kind of wedding you just never forget!
And as for just being great people? Well…we just connected from our first meeting in such a real way, I just knew we were going to work together! They were some of the most easy going clients I have ever worked with- talk about handing over their complete trust!
The weather was literally a wash out, so there goes their outdoor ceremony at the Barns! I was bummed since it was my first ‘real’ time shooting there since my sister’s wedding a few years back. But. I had a few tricks up my sleeve, thanks to my awesome sister and brother in law…. they hooked me up in such a major way!
So here is Miss Donna. So beautiful, so naturally radiant and just all around lovely as a person!
Her necklace was the bomb diggity dot com! Donna please leave a comment with who the desiger was, I want to give them props, it is so fabulous!!!
Her details…. her grandmother cross stitched their initials!
The flowers were done by none other than the fantabulous DATURA!!!! Holy smokes they were just amazing
They decided to do a first look- and I found us a nice little place to do it in!
How into fashion are these guys? Andrew was checking out Donna’s shoes right outta the gate!
Some details! My favorite detail is the rug burn on Donna’s right shoulder from riding the bull the other night! How many brides can say that!
Andrew and Donna were just so wonderful together, radiant, happy and fun
