Devin + Jessica
Jessica and Devin were married on a beautiful summer day in Iowa! I was so honored to spend the day with them, to meet their sweet family and friends, and to celebrate one of the happiest moments of their lives together! The day could not have gone better and I am so very excited to share with you a few of my favorite memories from it!
Jessica has such an eye for design and everything she planned for the wedding turned out beautiful-from the soft colors of the bridesmaids dresses to the stunning and unique detail in her wedding dress! When the girls arrived at the church they were all smiles and excited to start off the day. Often times brides feel nervous and anxious on their wedding day and especially before they see their groom, but Jessica was so relaxed and just excited! This girl really is something else-so confident, incredibly gorgeous, fun, and absolutely hilarious!
Jessica started out the day by getting ready in the church surrounded by her closest friends and her 3 sisters. Then it was off to see Devin for her first look! I loved watching her and Devin together! They have so much fun with each other and complement each other so well! If I can tell you one thing from my own marriage experience, it would be to learn to laugh with one another and to not take things so seriously! This is something that Jessica and Devin already have down! We had a blast taking the rest of their bridal party photos and then it was time for their ceremony!
Jessica and Devin were married in the beautiful chapel at St. Mark’s Lutheran Church and then it was off to their reception at the Kirkwood Hotel! The vibe of the day was upbeat as everyone was completely thrilled for the couple! There was lots of laughing, a few tears, and one incredibly packed dance floor! We had a chance to sneak away for a few bride and groom photos in the evening that made the perfect end to our day! Don’t miss those photos toward the bottom of the post!
Congratulations Devin and Jessica! Thank you for inviting me to your wedding and treating me like family! I am so incredibly happy for you and know your marriage will be filled with joy and happiness for many years to come!! I hope you enjoy these photos as much as I do!
