Kelly and Pat are the nicest couple you’ll ever meet. Seriously. All their friends told us as they got ready for their day. We knew they were nice enough but most people are nice, right?
It didn’t take long until we had fallen totally in love with these two – just like all of their family and friends who loved being in the glow of Kelly and Pat. They are so warm hearted, welcoming, and super friendly. AND we had the privilege of photographing their beautiful wedding!

Pat and Kelly both got a little more emotional than they had expected during the ceremony. Kelly and I had talked a lot about the importance of living in the moment during your wedding day and during the ceremony it was clear Kelly and Pat were very present in the moment.

Kelly and Pat started dating senior year of college – when they lived in neighboring townhouses at Saint Mike’s (aka – The Harvard of the North, according to a family member of Kelly’s) – so we HAD to go over to Townhouse 304 and 305 in wedding beauty!

The bridesmaids were superb! So friendly, cute, and up for anything. And do you see these stunning flowers from Randi at Silver Toad Florist?

awesome awesome dancing!

Incredible speeches – really really funny and sweet. Burned fleece jackets, wrestling poison ivy, sweet birthday singing … and more – oh! the speeches. sigh.
