I've said many times before how every Wedding is special, different...each one unique. This one was simply the most peaceful one I think we've ever worked on ~ I think a big part of that shines through as testimony to who Amanda & Nathan are as people.
For whatever reason, maybe it was the amazing Coordinating Team...the stylists...the entire Family ...everything just flowed as it should each & every step of the way this day...and I am so grateful we were there to share it with them!
Sat., we found ourselves at the St. Luke Presbyterian Church...which is nestled hill-top, overlooking the Bay from San Rafael. It was positively GORGEOUS & so serene! All the Vendors got right to work as the girls settled in...
As I gushed over how gorgeous her Dress was - the finest details of the overlay - she told me her Veil was worn by her Mother at her own Wedding...beautiful!
Amanda had a special gift for their Mothers ~ which brought on the 1st tears of many this day...
The Brides' Mom wore the most amazing colors, and honored her own mother with her Butterfly bracelet. I tried my best to find one hanging out with us today...but, alas, Grandma preferred her quiet privacy...
Amanda's Sister & best friends had so much fun...and looked AMAZING doing it!
The Church was all ready for us...but, first, we had a few more things to attend to!
Okay ~ NOW we're ready! Let's get Married!
...so nice to have all your best girls with you!
...now THAT's some fancy Butter!
This Tree was designed & drawn by the Grooms' Brother...sooo sweet!
Nathan & Amanda have spent plenty of time over the past 5 yrs discussing what they wanted for their Future...this day & forward...now, the time had finally come for their 'Future' to begin...
...trying to get his boys to behave during the 1st Dance...
Always, ALWAYS, an emotional time...
Momma's turn to shed those tears...
CONGRATULATIONS to Nathan & Amanda!! I hope the rest of your Lives together continue to flow as eloquently & easily as this day! You two were such a joy to work with & I know your Future holds great things for you both - and that new Family coming your way...someday...not now...but, soon enough...! xo
