Sara & Marty are Married!

Sara and Marty were one of the couples that we didn’t meet until their wedding day.  We had no idea what they looked like, but knew to look for the “Lady in White”.  We were excited to shoot their wedding because everything. . .down to the last detail. . .was planned out to perfection!  The only thing left to do, was actually meet (as opposed to email) the bride and groom! 

Wedding Info:

Date:  May 30, 2009

Wedding Location:  The Old Cathedral (right by the St. Louis Arch)

Reception Location:  The Magic House

Wedding Colors:  Tiffany Blue

Theme:  Buttons

First of all, meet the bride:  Sara!  Her taste is exquisite.  I loved every detail she picked out and planned.  Isn’t she gorgeous?

But wait!  Photo wise I am getting ahead of myself. . .let’s start at the very beginning!  Here’s the beautiful Cathedral.   Modray-9

The ceiling was perfect. . .in fact I teased Matt that I wanted the ceiling in our house to look like this. . .his reply, “Ok, sure.”  I heard a bit of sarcasm in his tone.Modray-24

Some Cathedral details.  I LOVED the chandeliers and the pipe organ. . .they were beautiful.

Photos aren’t allowed in The Old Cathedral after the wedding, so we left and went to a few other places including Kiener Plaza and the Arch grounds.

Sara and Marty’s reception was full of delicious details. . .literally!  They had a dessert bar, a candy bar, amazing center pieces, and to top it off, the reception was held at the Magic House!  Outside the Magic House is an amazing courtyard with a swing. .. of course we had to get some photos there before the reception “officially” started.  These were some of our favorite photos of the entire wedding!

You have to take a look at the button details. . .the wedding and reception had little button details everywhere.  Buttons, you ask?  Sara’s mom told us she asked Sara the same thing, “Buttons?”  Well, Sara is one creative lady, and has one very talented mom.  Take a look at the button details:

In the bouquet, boutonniere, and the table centerpieces. . .amazing, right??!Modray-1003Modray-988 Modray-773pop Modray-778  The cake and candy bar.  Seriously, HOW FUN IS THAT??  I know, right??!!

Lauren & Vince are Engaged!

Lauren first called about us doing her photos at the end of May.  Of course on that fateful day, it was cloudy, misty, and just a downright awful day for taking photos.  So, we decided to reschedule for June, and I am SO thankful we did.  The weather was absolutely PERFECT!  Lauren and Vince are rather adorable too!  Take a look at these faces!  Are they not a beautiful (I mean handsome, Vince!) couple?!?

Vince & Lauren

Vince and Lauren were an absolute PLEASURE to work with.  Fun, outgoing, and willing to try anything.  Oh, and I need to mention that they can DANCE!  Take a look at a “few” of our favorites below!
