I have been so excited about posting these pictures and it feels like I took forever to get them ready!! I guess that’s what a week of vacation will do to you. Susie and Chris are two very good friends of mine from high school and I had been looking forward to their wedding for months. It turned out to be a high school reunion and Ryan and I had such a great time documenting the day. Susie planned so many great details and special touches, and the whole day reflected their laid back personalities. Love you guys and can’t wait to put together your VideoShow in the coming weeks!

Possibly my favorite dress picture ever:

I bought this hanger for Susie as an engagement gift! Love it!

The magical Paulina Perez working her magic on Susie:

Susie’s “bridal party” just consisted of her sister and Chris’ dad, but she still had 2 of our close friends help her get dressed. I love this one of Elizabeth helping fix her veil:

A sweet moment with mom:

Another favorite…words can’t quite express!

Married!

They had an amazing getaway car! A family friend of Susie’s fixed up his Excalibur just for her since she requested it for her wedding at age 8!

Lots of beautiful green details!

Chris is a big golf fan so the groom’s cake was perfect, and Ryan did this awesome shot of his ring on a golf tee:

They get the award for the most awesomely unique (and tasty) wedding favors! Chris’ dad makes homemade beef jerky and made enough for everyone to have some! It was AMAZING!

Love this capture of Ryan’s:

There was never a dull moment on the dance floor. So here’s my friend Jessica getting the party started:

Susie is Arabic so they did some traditional Arabic dancing which was really fun to watch! Here’s Chris trying his hand at it:

Yet another funny story, Susie’s aunt owns a pole dancing studio and held Susie’s bachelorette party there. So during the reception she helped Susie perform a little dance number she had learned! My brave, brave friend….
