512 Teasers. That’s how many photos I picked when I first culled through this wedding. I don’t think I’ve ever done that in my life. And I went through them again and managed to half it… but yeah. That should explain where this post is going.
From the moment I met Brittney and Brandon, I knew this wedding was going to be incredible. Their passion for each other just radiates off them. They are so upbeat, fun, free spirited and totally, completely, head over heels in love.
I realized just how awesome the day was going to be when we got to letter reading and all the love and emotions just flooded. One thing after another from father – daughter first look to the actual first look of Brittney and Brandon and the emotions kept coming. It was impossible to take a bad photo.
And then we got to Bridal party portraits. It was freezing, it was raining, and we needed to rush it to get everyone back to the bus. Brandon had brought a bunch of smoke bombs to do photos with the bridal party. It was all kind of a rush, but next thing I knew, the smoke was going and everyone was walking. Smoke was EVERYWHERE. The bridal party was covered in bright colors; Brandon accidentally dropped a smoke bomb on the end of Brittney’s dress, burning it blue. It was crazy (and I’m sure going to be an amusing tale to tell for years to follow.) In the end we got some awesome photos despite the rain.
The reception was just as awesome. I was crying laughing at the most amazing, heartfelt and funny toast I’ve ever heard from the brother of the groom. All the while tears are rolling down both Brittney and Brandon’s faces as it hit home. The DJ, Jason Jani from SCE Event Group was absolutely incredible. The dance floor was full and wild from after the first dance until the end of the night!
