I showed a handful of pictures last Friday from Jennifer and Nate’s June 9th wedding. Today I have 70. This was such a beautiful wedding and perfect day. Jennifer and Nate are both such wonderful and generous people, the fact that it was their day made all of the elements even sweeter. The wedding took place at the Missouri Botanical Garden. I loved this venue! What an ideal setting for the most important day of your life!

This is a picture of their first look; they wanted to make sure they had a private moment before the ceremony began.

Love it when a groom wears some stylish socks!

My friend Elizabeth came through with this banner for the couple at the last minute. They wanted to have a picture for their thank-you cards (I think this one is pretty sweet!)

I loved how happy Jennifer looks laughing with her family in this candid shot right before the wedding!

Cute programs complete with word search and pencil:

First kiss!!!

After the ceremony and a few pictures, we headed to the nearby Soulard Station for an equally incredible reception.

This cake was one of the best looking (and best tasting) cakes in recent memory. I hope to get the joy of working with Whipt Cream again soon!

Favazza’s did and excellent job with the catering!

Jenn and Nate had an amazing first dance. Wow! Great moves, you guys!
