This last weekend I had the great honor of photographing Chystal and Michael’s wedding in Liberty, MO at the Wynbrick Center.  The day was absolutely perfect.  You simply could not have asked for better weather in June.  This couple was so fun to work with, and the love Chrystal and Michael have for each other is something to be admired.  Within just a few minutes of being around them, you know that they are a perfect match.

The dress was one of my all time favorites I’ve ever photographed. The way the light hit this silver gown was magical.

Such an amazing dress deserved equally amazing shoes, of course. 🙂

Everyone getting ready…

Gorgeous flowers by Luther Florists. Chrystal’s bouquet appropriately featured little crystals throughout.

Prayer time before ceremony.

The guys all wore these great DIY paper flower boutonnieres.

The ladies looked beautiful in pretty lavender dresses.

Chrystal and Michael opted for a “first look” before the ceremony. It was such a cute, special moment. 🙂

The wedding ceremony was bathed in this gorgeous soft, glowy light.  I was in photographer heaven… 🙂

The ceremony featured a unity tree, which the couple watered together to symbolize their growing love.

Loved this candid below of Chrystal showing off her wedding band.  Captured by my second shooter Jennifer Rodick.

More great DIY details at the reception – paper flowers and fortune cookies.  So clever!

Some hilarious moments followed right after this during the cake cutting.  See them on my Facebook page.

Yummy gelato by Paciugo was served, and all the guests LOVED it!

A few more portraits with the couple.  Such a beautiful bride and handsome groom!

I just love these photos below of Chrystal.  She is the definition of poise and grace…

The couple about to make their grand exit.

Chrystal and Michael, thanks again for giving me the opportunity to document your special day.  It was so great getting to know you both, and I wish you a lifetime of happiness! – Tiffany
