A Wedding Story | Abilene | Manhattan , Kansas Wedding Photographer

An Awesome day for a Wedding in Abilene , Kansas!

Hello! Let me share with you some of the details from a recent wedding in Abilene , Kansas. The Bride & Groom are AMAZINGLY in love and it shines through every fiber of their being.  They actually met in a bar out near Kansas City where they currently reside.  So if you are still looking for your mate at a bar, there are occasionally some good ones there! ;)

The day started at the salon where the Bride's mother, a hair dresser conveniently, and a couple other stylists were getting the gals ready to go.  There was fruit, lots of coffee (naturally), and definitely excitement.  Once they were done we headed over to the church for the dress and other finishing touches.  The Groom & his Groomsmen wore white lilies with their Lego superhero attached to the stem of the boutonniere!  Prior to the ceremony the Bride requested a non-visual First Look so her and her fiance could talk prior to the wedding without seeing each other, and her first response when she knew he was on the other side was sweet emotion.

The ceremony was conducted by a pastor who knew the families and the strong faith that runs throughout the families on both sides so it was really a beautiful, touching ceremony.  You could see the joy in the tears of the Bride as her father walked her down the aisle, and in the huge smile on the Groom's face once he saw her for the first time.

After the ceremony the Bridal Party headed over to a local park for some fun photos with an antique vehicle that is part of the family that is perfectly coordinated with the wedding colors of blue and coral! (How awesome is that!?).  The Bride & Groom are SO much fun and we had a great time.  My favorite part is definitely when I asked the Bride to sit on the vintage Chevy they were driving for the day, not realizing how good of a wax job had been done, and she slid right off.  The Groom, in all his wit, posed perfectly in response to it thus giving me my favorite image from the day.  It is the kind of image that made my abdomen hurt from laughing so hard!  There is nothing I love more than true love and a good time!

The reception was decorated beautifully, including a nice display for lost family and friends that had passed away.  Each photo had a trinket that represented them during their life.  It was heart-wrenching for sure and such a very nice touch.  The cake stood on a tree stump carved with their initials and surrounded by cupcakes.  The Bride surprised her new Mr. by singing the song "At Last" better than anyone I have ever heard, including the original artists! It was amazing! The whole day was a success and I cannot wait to share their images with them!
