When I arrived on Katie and Jacob’s wedding day, she was sitting in a quiet room finishing up writing a note for him to read before they would see each other later that day…I always love when brides and grooms exchange letters because I think it’s such a heartfelt way to remember exactly how you were feeling in the moments leading up to promising forever to each other!

When I asked them to share their favorite thing about each other, Jacob mentioned that he loves how motivated Katie is and how she’s always working hard to better herself and their relationship…and Katie mentioned that she loves how thoughtful Jacob is in making decisions and in caring for her. She loves that they can trust each other completely. I’m so happy for them and I loved seeing their excitement building as I photographed the getting ready portion of the day, and when he finally saw his bride coming down the aisle toward him his face said it all…Katie made the most stunning bride and I am so excited to share a few favorites from their day! From her Valentino shoes to the gorgeous outdoor ceremony to the most heartfelt toasts…everything was perfect! I hope you enjoy!
