Wetmore Wedding - K + L | Professional Topeka Photographer Stacey Zoll Photography

Hey, hey, hey! I am excited to share a few previews with you from last Saturday's wedding in the small town of Wetmore, Kansas, near Holton.  What a blast it was!  The couple got ready and held their ceremony at the Bride's home parish of St. James in Wetmore, Kansas.  It was clear by the friends and family that came out for the event that the couple is dearly loved and supported by many! They had a packed ceremony and reception; what a blessing!

The reception was also held at the St. James Parish Hall but we took a small detour to go take a few photos around town.  After the ceremony we went to visit the Groom's grandmother who was unable to make it to the ceremony.  She lit up to see them and they even brought her a corsage of her own.  It was a sweet moment that I am sure all will cherish.

The Bridal Party had a party bus for the transportation after so they had loosened up quite a bit before we hit Main Street in Wetmore, where we took a few more shots of the Bridal Party and the couple before heading over the big party.  The reception had a great DJ that kept the party moving and everyone clearly had a great time.  The Bride's sisters made a photo slide show of the Bride & Groom growing up, and of course photos of their time together, to share with the crowd.  The venue was decorated with a ton of personalized bottles, jars, flowers, photos, etc.  It was clear a lot of work went into this day, and a great day it was!

Keri & Logan - thanks so much for choosing me to photograph your wedding and engagement! I had such a great time, and know your marriage will be wonderful as your love for one another and your friendship is evident to all who see you together.  May you always love one another with the love Christ has for year, and may your marriage be forever blessed!

Topeka Wedding at Highland Park Methodist with Vinewood Reception

Hello readers! Today I am excited to share with you the wedding of Megan & Dylan, a sweet couple from wonderful families that happily said their vows last Saturday.  I had so much fun working with this group of people and witnessing their commitment to God and one another.  I am confident their marriage will be blessed through their shared love and commitment to Jesus Christ.

The couple was married at the Highland Park United Methodist Church in Topeka, Kansas.  Not only was it a beautiful church and ceremony, but it is the same place the Bride's parents said their own vows decades before!  I really enjoyed the sermon, it reminded me very much of my own wedding actually.  It was not only personalized but personable and included a few laughs, but of course focused on the couple's desire to honor God through their marriage.

After the ceremony the wedding party and I headed over to the Ted Ensley gardens for some outdoor portraits before crossing the street to attend the reception at The Vinewood.  The reception was a lot of fun with great music, food, and company!  The security for the night was nice enough to offer his police car for some fun group photos also!  So don't worry, no arrests actually took place in the making of these photographs. =)

Megan & Dylan, thanks so much for choosing me to be a part of your special wedding.  Of course I wish you the very best, and had such a great time photographing this wonderful occasion.  God Bless your marriage always, and may your love for one another grow stronger in Christ with each passing year.

Wedding Fun at Maceli's Lawrence | Topeka, Kansas Photographer Stacey Zoll Photography

Welcome back! Today I am going to share some images from a recent wedding I photographed at Maceli's of Lawrence, Kansas.  This couple was so much fun at their engagement session and they did not disappoint on their wedding day!  For as down-to-earth as they seem to be, there is not many dull moments.  They come with lots of laughs, sincerity, and just an all-around good time.  It was wonderful getting to share this day with them, and I have high hopes for their future together as Mr. & Mrs!

The ceremony and reception were both held at Maceli's, displaying colors and party favors of orange and blue.  The flowers by Owen's Flower Shop were gorgeous, and the family and guests were a real pleasure to be around.  The flower girl and ring bearer received candy from the groom for making it down the aisle, the Bride made it through the vows without laughing too much (perhaps the center of attention is not her absolute favorite thing, haha), and they, literally, danced their way back down the aisle after being announced as husband & wife.

Their first dance had a choreographed opening with an unexpected twist, their wedding cake was laquered powdered-donuts (don't worry..it was a decoration only!), because they actually exchanged famous Manhattan, Kansas Varsity Donuts in lieu of the traditional cake-cutting.  The toasts given by family, friends and the Groom were awesome and had everyone laughing as well!  (By the way, I look forward to an invite to that New Year's Eve party!). All in all, it was just a great day. So check out some of the images below and then head over to their personal photo gallery on the SZP website to see more!

Thank you SO much to you both for allowing me to photograph your day!  I wish you all the very best as you start your next chapter. You will be missed in Kansas I'm sure but I hope your new life is more than you thought it would be, and I pray God blesses your marriage always!
