We met Molly and Jordan’s mom, Darla, at the January bridal fair earlier this year. Jeff and I remember when she came to our booth and she had said she genuinely wanted us as her wedding photographers. She had seen our portfolio online and seen our blog with different wedding debuts. Once we asked when her wedding date was she heard the hesitation in our voice. Her wedding date was planned in stone for Friday of the set up day of the bridal fair. Jeff and I knew we couldn’t do a wedding on the Saturday during the bridal fair. We told her we could document her wedding day and have Brett, our other photographer, along with Alex, our photographer’s assistant set up our booth. Molly later contacted us and said she would love it if we could document her wedding. We are very pleased that we did.

We started the day 8 a.m. at the golf course in Hesston where Jordan and five groomsmen played an eighteen hole round of golf. After a few holes Jeff and I headed over to the church in Newton, Grace Community Church where the ladies were getting their hair done at in the nursery. Once three of the seven ladies had their hair done along with Molly’s hair they all hopped in a car and went to Beau Monde Spa and Boutique for Molly’s make-up to be applied. Then it was time to head back to Newton for Molly and the ladies to get in their dresses.

Molly’s dress was a Maggie Sottero with lace and beadwork throughout and a corset back that laced up. Molly’s colors were red, brown and aqua. Her details blew me away from the programs handmade, her own monogram, her shoes and bridesmaids shoes, gifts to the bridesmaids and the reception was “AMAZING!”. I will get to the reception later down through the write up. Molly and Jordan decided to see each other beforehand and take pictures around Newton and come back to the church for family photos. That is what we did after documenting them seeing each other we went to a field, train depot, small garden and a coffee shop.

As we headed back to the church we saw some rain coming, which by the way is “GOOD LUCK” if it rains on your wedding day! Across the street from the church was a newer golf course where we were able to get some really awesome shots of the two of them. After the family photos Molly and Jordan had plenty of time before the ceremony began, 7:30. The ceremony was very low light and romantic. After the ceremony guests headed over to the hall of the church where the reception took place. They had a fruit and cheese bar, cookie bar, candy bar, fruit tarts and creme puff bar, and the hit of them all was the COFFEE BAR! That was a first to see a coffee bar at a reception. When they arrived at the reception they cut their cake and had their toasts. They also had a slideshow that guests got to enjoy watching. A little after 10:00 they had a grand exit of them leaving through a sea of people with bubbles.

We want to thank you for letting us document your wedding day. We had a blast getting to know you and we hope you Stay in Touch!

Friday morning Jeff went to cover Dan with the guys as they played Home Run Derby and I went to document Catie as she got her hair done by her mom who was the stylist. When I left the salon, Hair Force, I was able to get to the church, St. Vincent de Paul in Andover, before Catie and the ladies showed up.

Catie had her wedding attire locked up in the bridal room. The lady from the office of the church was kind enough to let me in so I could capture some amazing detail shots of Catie’s dress, veil, shoes and necklace. Catie’s dress was from the Alfred Angelo designer dresses. It had bead work on the bodice with chiffon material. The ladies all wore chocolate brown and aqua dresses. The guys all had brown tuxes with aqua tie and vests. As soon as Catie arrived at the church she applied her make-up and her mom helped her get into her dress. Catie and Dan had decided to not see each other. We had plenty of time to get pictures of Catie and Dan with the bridesmaids and groomsmen before the ceremony leaving an hour to relax.

Dan played some pool down in the basement as the ladies hung out in the bride’s room. Before the ceremony guests arrived and signed the signature guestbook that we designed from Catie and Dan’s engagement session. When the ceremony started, the bridesmaids and groomsmen came in opposite doors and met in the middle to walk together down the aisle. Catie was escorted into the sanctuary by her dad and stepdad. Pastor Mike went over how Catie and Dan met and how their relationship grew and still continue to grow. After the ceremony we finished up the family pictures and then did pictures of the two of them together.

The reception was held at the church in The Ville. The DJ announced the wedding party along with a grand entrance of Catie and Dan down the staircase to their reception. The wedding party grabbed a bite to eat and then cut their cake. Their cake was a 4-tiered brown and aqua in color with different designs on each layer. Their cake topper was a upper case cursive “R”. Following was the toast done by the best man. After that the dance was kicked off with Catie and Dan’s first dance as husband and wife. Catie then danced with her dad along with her step dad and Dan danced with his mom. Catie and Dan seemed to have a great time spending time with friends and family.

We want to thank you both for allowing us to document your day. You guys are a very sweet couple. Stay in Touch!
