Ashley and John have been such a fun, easy-going and wonderful couple, and we have absolutely enjoyed working with them! Ever since their engagement shoot last fall with their adorable dog, we have looked forward to working with them and photographing them (they make our job incredibly easy because they both look so good in front of the camera :) )!

Their wedding day was a somewhat dreary day weather-wise, but that didn’t damper their spirits and mood! Everyone was all smiles all day, and the rain even cleared up enough for us to snap some quick shots outside too. But they did such an awesome job of decorating the church and reception, it was great shooting inside too! Check out Ashley’s beautiful dress in the sanctuary:

I LOVED the idea of each bridesmaid having a different color bouquet:

And while the girls were busy getting ready, the boys were kicked back and played the Wii that Ashley bought John as a wedding gift.

It was lightly raining when they left, but that didn’t stop everyone from standing outside to throw birdseed and to send them their congratulations and well-wishes!
