"This is really happening..."

I think she said it about a million times throughout the day...and afterward it was "We're really married!" But I don't think she was the only one thinking that. This wedding was almost as important to me as it was to Bridgette & Brad. I was so thankful that Bridgette asked us to shoot her wedding, she was so easy going, and ready to do anything we asked her, which made our job a million times easier. Plus, having my first wedding be for one of my close friends in some ways relieved a bit of pressure.
The day flew by...but as the saying goes..."Time flies when you're havin' fun!" And it was so so much fun. I enjoyed EVERY aspect of getting to photograph a wedding. The most important day of these two people's life...little moments of their special day frozen in time for the rest of their lives! I could go on and on and on...
But you came here for pictures right? So here's the first set...there's so many to choose from, and so many different moments that I want to share...I just don't have enough room to put them all in one post...so be looking for the second set later on!
