A Christmas Wedding

Last week James and Michelle were married.

Their Christmas wedding was absolutely beautiful!

I was in complete awe of their wedding cake and found myself snapping more pictures of it than anything else... :)

I also found myself being drawn to the candy table multiple times!

Liz made a beautiful matron of honor.

My client & best friend...

the gorgeous bride was full of smiles!

The auditorium was decorated beautifully by the maid of honor's

mother who is a wedding coordinator.

The ceremony

My gift to the bride & groom was made by an past co-worker of

mine; she did an amazing job and the couple loved their prop that they got to keep!

David brought his most prized possession to the groomsmen's photoshoot and insisted it be used in a couple pics:

Loved the natural backdrop;
