I have had such a great time getting to know Brian & Christy throughout their engagement and could not have imagined a better day to celebrate the beginning of their marriage together! Like a lot of June weddings, we were looking at a high chance of rain leading up to Saturday, but all of our worrying was in vain — it was a beautiful day!

Listening to toasts by friends and family and seeing the way Brian & Christy interacted with their guests only confirmed my suspicions: these two are some of the kindest people on Earth! I am so thankful to get to share their wedding story with you today :)

Meet Brian & Christy!

Loved this moment with Christy’s Aunt!Her dress? Absolutely GORGOEUS!!! I loved the soft stripes — perfect for Christy!Christy & her Dad shared a First Look once she was all ready, and it was so sweet! And then it was time to begin the ceremony!How awesome is this aerial shot from my second shooter, Melody?! :)Christy’s niece played the piano during the unity sand pouring and did such an excellent job!
Officially Mr. & Mrs. Kunes!We headed down to Voinovich Bicentennial Park for some bridal party fun — love this group of girls so much!

Love these two so much!
Wasn’t Christy the most gorgeous bride?! :)
One of my favorites!Love!!!Again — an awesome shot by Melody!Brian & Christy’s reception was at Windows on the River, and it went right along with the urban vibe of their day! Talk about gorgeous lighting :)Such beautiful toasts!Then it was time for the party to begin!
