Ellen + Matt = Married!

On 11/27, we photographed Ellen & Matt’s STUNNING wedding & reception at St. John’s and Union Station! Ellen’s dress had over 16,000 crystals on it, it was truly stunning in every sense of the word! 🙂 Ellen & Matt are such a fun and outgoing couple too, which I love! Everything was perfect and the day ran so smoothly thanks to one of our favorite wedding planning teams, Deborah & Cassie of A Touch of Elegance! They ROCK!! 🙂

Ellen & her girls deemed this Sugarland “Stuck Like Glue” song as their wedding theme song and I must say, it was such a magical moment in that dressing room when they played that song! The girls started dancing together and laughing and it was so much fun! 🙂 I think I’ll forever remember this moment whenever I hear that song now… 🙂

Ellen’s bridesmaids had some major bling too! Loved it!

And check out our handsome groom, Matt! 🙂

Love this one in black & white…

Favorite! This one is definitely going on my website! 🙂

A little vintage-inspired editing on this one… 🙂

GORGEOUS!! I told her to give me sassy and this is what I got! Ellen, you are so fun & beautiful!! 🙂

Off to the church to get married!! We had the chance to shoot with Jet Kaiser Films that day, we LOVE working with Jet & Dani, they are such a cute couple and insanely talented!!!! I can’t wait to see Ellen & Matt’s video! If you are looking for a videographer for your wedding, check them out! 🙂

Proud daddy 🙂

Happy groom!

I love St. John’s, it’s so pretty and regal looking…

Afterwards, we took the wedding party to the monument area for some fun photos…but first, they had to update their profile photo and relationship status on facebook!! 🙂 Gotta make it “facebook official” you know? 😉

Ellen got matching Uggs for all of her bridesmaids…

Loved this one…very urban looking 🙂

That cathedral length veil was amazing!!!

I love how the monument was all decorated for Christmas! In fact, the Circle of Lights event was the night before their wedding so that was perfectly timed! 😉

Fun wedding party!

Another beautiful shot of Ellen…Karen Hall & Company did a great job on everyone’s hair & make-up that day! Karen is so awesome, she did my hair & make-up on my wedding day (almost 8 years ago!) and I’ve been recommending her ever since…love her! 🙂

Their cake was AMAZING! The detail work and bling were simply fabulous!!

And check out that topper, it was so perfect for that cake! Angie Kenley of Bokay Florist did a fabulous job on all of the florals and decor!

Paige Hayes from Sweet Seductions did an AWESOME job on their cake!!

Her dress had 45 bustles on it! (Yes, that’s forty five!) LOL! Karen came back for hair & make-up touch ups while 3 people bustled her dress, it was amazing…

Isn’t Crowne Plaza/Union Station STUNNING?!?! I feel like I use that word a lot…but it is stunning…and I’m so lucky to be able to photograph so many amazing events like this! Megan & Katie are great to work with at Union Station and the room always looks beautiful!

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!! A Classic provided all of their gorgeous rentals!

Even the place card table was stunning! 🙂

The favor boxes were branded with their wedding logo/sticker! Pretty awesome!

I LOVE twinkling candles!!

We thought their table numbers would make for an awesome wedding date ring shot! 🙂

Love this shot of them in their own moment 🙂

We took them outside for a few outdoor shots at night…

Then they surprised their guests with a taco bar towards the end of the night! I love it when our couples do fun things like that…

Giving Deborah & Cassie a quick hug good bye before their sparkler exit! These ladies are BFFs for life now! 🙂

This horse was cold and so ready to go, he was full of personality to say the least! 🙂

Yay!!!

My favorite moment of the night was right after they got in the carriage, when everyone was waving and yelling good bye, Ellen pointed to me and said that we were awesome to work with that day! LOL! 🙂 She’s so sweet, I just adore her!

Hope you guys had a fabulous time in St. Lucia!!! More pics coming soon!! 🙂
