Amanda + John [Booking House Wedding]

Amanda and John soaked up every moment of their wedding day, despite the crazy variety of weather. After pouring rain and gusty wind, a stunning rainbow appeared! Absolutely everything about this Booking House wedding was dreamy. And the vendor team could not have been any sweeter (or more talented!!): Taryn Blake Events, BeLovely (florals), Bristle & Prim, The Scarlett Runner, and In White Bridal.

I had a blast capturing the effortless love between Amanda & John! Enjoy this elegant, oh-so-fun wedding:

I adore when couples exchange handwritten letters and gifts. John gave her a stunning necklace, and she gave him a classy watch. Thanks to Kelsey Renee Photography for second-shooting and taking these great shots of John as he opened Amanda's gift to him.

There's nothing quite like a live band at your wedding reception. Bachelor Boys Band played timeless favorites!

I've been a wedding photographer since 2007, and this was the first time I've had the chance to photograph a bride and groom in front of a rainbow. Perfect ending to one heck of a wedding.
