I didn't stay very far away from one of my favorite venues for too long this season! I have been so blessed to have photographed some of my favorite weddings of my 2017 season here. Kristi and Chris were married under the looming willow trees at The Addison Grove, blanketed in golden sunset light. They decided to celebrate their day sans bridal party, but were very intentional in the planning of their wedding day. Chris' brother, whom was married just weeks before their big day, became ordained to officiate their ceremony. One of my favorite lines from Chris' handwritten vows was "I vow to never give up on us," which has proved true in their ten years together. Kristi donned an incredible gown by Crystal Design that had such unique texture for their first look and portraits, then added on a unique, flowing train for her "wow" factor for the ceremony. The beautifully blended, soft florals by Whim Hospitality set the tone for their candle-lit reception and truly inspired an ambiance of love, togetherness, and romance. I cannot begin to explain how grateful I am to have had the opportunity to know these two and their hearts for each other! Thank you, K+C, from the bottom of my heart - you are so loved!
