Sarah and Jeff - Engagement

This is Sarah and Jeff...a cute, fun couple, who are getting married next September.  Sarah and Jeff spend a lot of time at Forest Park, so that's where we decided to do their session.  They told us they were up for anything, which we love to hear.  We started at the History Museum, which is one of their favorite places in the city.  Then we headed over to a field FULL of yellow daisies.  It is only like this for a little while so we HAD to take advantage of it.

Sarah and Jeff, it was super fun!  Can't wait for the wedding :)

Sara and Juan - Wedding Part 2

Here is Part 2 of Sara and Juan’s awesome wedding!  Their reception took place at the Palladium.  This was our first reception there, and we were super impressed with everything...the atmosphere, the service, all great.  Before the reception we went to this rundown area downtown for some urban shots with lots of texture.  LOVE!

Sara and Juan’s Flowers were all done by Kirkwood Florist.  They did an AMAZING job!  Each centerpiece was different and all of them featured different tropical flowers in unique ways.

Sara and Juan’s reception featured lots of fun music, including salsa and merengue!  Such a fun touch!

Congratulations Sara and Juan!  Everything was beautiful :)

Sara and Juan - Wedding Part 1

Sara and Juan were married at St. Margaret of Scotland Church, in the Tower Grove neighborhood, with the reception following at one of our new favorite venues, Palladium.  Sara and Juan live in Chicago, but Sara's parents are actually next-door neighbors with Ian's parents...small world!  It's not often we can walk to work!  Sara and Juan had a clear vision for their day, which was both modern and beautiful.  They were all about working with us to find some different, urban and architectural spots for pictures, which was awesome.

Sara and Juan did several things throughout their wedding day, including having readings in Spanish during the ceremony, as a way to include Juan's family and their Colombian heritage.

We seriously LOVED these details!  Very unique and gorgeous bouquets by Kirkwood Florists, along with equally awesome ties.  Kirkwood Florists outdid themselves (p.s. WAIT until you see the reception flowers!).

Part 2, including Sara and Juan's reception, coming tomorrow!  Stay Tuned!!
