It feels like each wedding I have this year is vying to be the most fun. Jess and Justin’s was no exception and definitely gave some of the top contenders a run for their money! We had such a beautiful day to celebrate these two and I’m so happy I was able to be a part of it. Jess and Justin are also especially awesome and I have every intention with being friends with them for years to come. Ski buddies this winter, right? :) I’m so excited to share photos from their beautiful fall wedding from this past Saturday!
I started my day off with Jess at her parents’ house!
How gorgeous is Jess!? Oh, and yes, we specifically made sure the deer made it in the getting ready shots just for Justin.
Meanwhile Jen was with the guys at Justin’s parents’ house… and might have gotten peed on by the family dog. Sorry Jen!
Then it was off to Dundalk United Methodist Church for their short but very sweet ceremony!
Married!
Back at Sparrow’s Point Country Club, we got some pictures of the bride and groom with their bridal party on the very windy grounds.
Nailed it.
Beautiful girls!
I love that Justin, his dad, and groomsmen all had their helmets for this shot, and for those who weren’t fire fighters, well, they weren’t left out.
After some pictures with a side of shenanigans with the bridal party it was time for portraits of the lovely couple! I am so thrilled with these!
Love this spot!
They’re pros at dipping, in case you can’t tell!
Inside the reception was decked out in beautiful fall decor. I just adore the J + J on the centerpieces and cake!
I love these two, so happy!
After their first dance they both had beautiful and emotional parent dances…
…followed by toasts!
We had such an amazing sunset and I’m so glad we were able to take advantage of these amazing skies!
Back inside, it was only a little bit crazy. The crazy was kicked off by the cutting of the cake, and subsequent smashing of the cake.
Ever since I posted my first photog selfie on my blog, lots have happened! I’m so glad this is a thing. I love my couples and I love getting photos with them :)
Before the end of the night we got outside one more time for some night shots by the water!
and ended the night, warming up by the fire.
Jess and Justin,
I had an absolute blast being with you guys on your wedding day! I hope you’re having an amazing time in Jamaica and I can’t wait to hear all about it, especially since I’m going for the first time next year! So I need to hear everything! :) Can’t wait to see you and hear all about it!
xoxo,
Brea
