I am SO excited to share this beautiful wedding from last weekend with you today!! Ethan & Aileen had the most perfect day — if I could photograph it again & again I would in a second! From the beautiful details and sparkling florals to the moment when Ethan saw his bride for the first time….it was flawless and full of love in every way possible! But not only was their day romantic and beautiful, it was just plain FUN!!! I am still bummed that it’s over to be honest! Luckily, Aileen & Ethan will have lots of pictures to remember their day :) Here are some of my favorites to enjoy!Aileen’s sorority, Delta Gamma, is very important to her, and I loved seeing all of the details she had to go with it!
Aileen was the most calm bride EVER — her confidence and peace for the day was just so evident and set everyone at ease. Also, can we talk about how gorgeous she is?!
Loved the girls’ monogrammed shirts :) These next photos are so fun!
Aileen’s dress is stunning. Absolutely beautiful!!!
And Ethan didn’t look so bad himself!! LOVE that they rocked the bow-ties :)
Then it was time to get married!!! :) When I met with Aileen a few months ago, she repeatedly told me just how important photos of Ethan’s reaction to seeing her walk through those doors were to her. Needless to say, his response did not disappoint :)
Love the way Ethan looks at her in this photo below…
It was a beautiful ceremony!!!
Aaaand they’re married!!! :)
We were so happy Ethan’s grandmother was able to witness their ceremony; she was beautiful in her teal dress and corsage :)
And then we were off for picture adventuring!
Aileen & Ethan were naturals — it was so sweet to watch them just relish the fact they were MARRIED!! :)
Their happiness was contagious!!! So much fun!!
My favorite part of the day is ALWAYS the time I get one-on-one with the bridge & groom — a chance for the two of them to take some deep breaths, forget about everyone else, and just BE with the one they love :) Aileen & Ethan made my job easy!!
Beautiful :)
Easily one of my favorites!!!! LOVE the way they look at each other :)
Love this piece of her Dad…carried with her throughout the entire day.
Yeah…I guess they were an okay bridal party…. ;)
Lots and lots and lots of dancing —- my favorite kind of receptions!!! :)
SUCH a fun night :)
Ethan and Aileen,
Thank you so much for letting me be a part of your day!!! I am SO glad to know you both and can’t wait to see all of the adventures life has in store for you :) Congratulations!!!!!
Love love love,
Sami
