I arrived to meet Esther and her ladies at St. John’s the morning of her wedding. I was verrrry impressed with her bridesmaids!! Lots of attention and “ooooo’s” and “ahhhhhh’s” and “fussing” over Esther and her bridal look! Everyone was sooooo excited for the upcoming celebration. This day was decided to do as many family formal portraits before the ceremony so I was able to capture all the decor in full glory before guests arrived! We also did a “first look” blindfolded!! They both wanted to wait until the moment walking down the isle, which was a good thing for these two!! Yes, Jake saw his bride with blurry vision…. TEARS! 🙂 They both wrote their vows to each other and his to Esther was honoring to her and praising her character…. so sweet! …but then telling her for the FIRST time the truth about her cooking even though he asked for “take aways.” hahaha. That’s love. Esther and Jake are such sweet spirits together…. but I have to say…. their cake ceremony was more liken to ‘rock ’em sock ’em… hahahhaa! Congratulations to the new Mr. & Mrs!!!
