Today I have a follow up of my first wedding photo post! These are from the lovely Ashley Edwards, the second shooter at my wedding (and also a friend from my dorm hall), of Ashley Brooke Edwards Photography. She got some good experience working with my friend Noor at my wedding, and she's producing fabulous photos! Here are some of the wonderful pictures she shot:
Some of you may recognize the band in a photo below: Sarah Jane & the Blue Notes! They were AMAZING! They look vintagely fabulous, their musicianship is incredible, and they were great to work with, very flexible and very kind. They even learned "Faithful Forever" by Glen Miller just so Jacob and I could have it played live during our first dance, which was so good of them! I highly recommend them for any of your upcoming events in the St. Louis area!

| Instead of a father-daughter dance, my father and I did a crane folding ceremony, as in folding Japanese origami cranes. My dad showed me how to do it when I was very little, and it's been a "thing" of ours ever since. It was much more meaningful than a dance. |

| We decorated the tables simply with vintage linens, fresh flowers in old jars and vases, candies, paper cranes folded by my father, and pictures of Jacob's and my relatives who had served in the military back in the day. |
Thanks for sharing Emileigh! My mum and I really enjoyed looking through these. We love the table decorations and of course your dress. The sleeve and neckline details are just to die for.

ReplyDeleteThese photos are so joyful, gorgeous and heartwarming. I was literally "awwing" aloud to myself as I scrolled through. Thank you for sharing even more of your special day with us, honey.

*PS* Your mom rocked her vintage look fabulously!
These photos are so, so beautiful. They really capture how special and intimate your wedding was! Love the idea of forgoing the father-daughter dance to something more special and personal. :)
