June 7, 2013 Tom + Teresa | Hillendale Country Club Wedding
Last Saturday I had the pleasure of photographing Tom and Teresa‘s perfect wedding day. I say perfect and I mean it, it was truly the perfect day. It couldn’t have come together any better and they couldn’t be more deserving of such a wonderful celebration of their love. Thanks to Danielle Cover for assisting me for the day. You were so incredibly helpful and I loved having you with me!
Teresa and Tom are currently living it up in Mexico celebrating their honeymoon. I hope you guys are having the time of your lives and congratulations again!
I started the morning off with Teresa at her parents’ house. She was a filled with a mix of excitement and nerves and it was completely adorable.
Probably the most beautiful wedding dress I’ve ever seen.
And it looked even more amazing on her!
Their ceremony was held at Haebler Memorial Chapel on the campus of Goucher College. It was a lovely chapel and a lovely service.
Then it was off to Hillendale for some more photos before the reception! Such gorgeous bridesmaids! I bet you can guess which two girls here are Teresa’s younger sisters.
Love this!
Tom’s quite the handsome groom!
And Teresa is the most stunning bride. LOVE these.
I love that Danielle followed them into the reception to get an alternate angle. The shot turned out awesome (see right).
Following their first dance we had hilarious speeches from Teresa’s dad, sisters, and the best man, followed by a blessing by their Pastor.
We snuck back out for a few sunset portraits after dinner. I’m saving a few of my favorites for the end of this post, but here is a quick teaser:
After dinner (and the sunset portraits) we had the parent dances.
And then a surprise dance for Teresa’s parents, Terry and Nick, who had celebrated their 30th anniversary just two weeks prior to the wedding day.
I was downright BAWLING during this. They danced to “Remember When” by Alan Thompson. And of course I had to google it right now to get the youtube link, and combining that with these images I cried again.
Towards the end of the song, they were joined by the bride and groom and the rest of the guests.
AND PARTY TIME COMMENCED!
