Last Saturday was another perfect day for a wedding! Chantal and Jared were married at the Abernethy Center in Oregon City. What a stunningly beautiful location! A great getting ready room with lots of light, a gorgeous ballroom and of course the veiled gardens for the ceremony were divine!
I started the day with the girls.
Here is a little "behind the scenes shot" that's me in the middle and Jenifer from Polka Dot Photography on the left. She was in with us for a bit while she waited for the boys to be ready for her.
It takes a village to dress a bride... on a cool side note - Chantal's dress had a big elastic strap that went all the way around her and connected to the dress to help keep it on and up! Kind of like a wedding dress seatbelt :) I thought that was a great idea - because sometimes strapless dresses can be dangerous!
Chantal and Jared had a whole table in the ballroom set up as a "Candy Bar" by Bruce's Candy Kitchen. There was so much delicious candy - including a handmade truffle for every guest!
Proving that you never know where pretty light is going to be - this alley was fantastic!!
I told Chantal that I was jealous of people with pretty eyelashes she told me she knew that already because she read it on my blog. I was a little shocked - I forget that anyone other than my mother reads this... lol (hi mom!)
Seriously?! Could she be any more gorgeous? I don't think so...
Married!
Another 60 second photo session on the side of the building during the reception. Jared is my favorite kind of groom - when I walked them to the side of the building, before I did anything he said "This is going to be cool." I love that!! Hope you think its cool Jared :)
Thanks so much to the both of you and both of your super cool families! I hope you have an amazing time in Hawaii!
Also, huge thanks to Jenifer for being my 2nd shooter - check out her blog for more pics from the day.
I love all of the pictures but the last one is amazing! Jenny
