Congratulations! :: {Karen & Kurt's Wedding Day!}

On this amazingly beautiful October Saturday, Kurt & Karen will tie the knot! I am so incredibly excited for these two and to see all of the amazing personal details and hard work that Karen has put into the planning come to life!

They are getting married at the Orchid Conservatory at Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden and have already practiced running through this fountain...which they will also do this evening after their ceremony- and likely just as the sun sets!
And I absolutely cannot wait to show y'all Karen's dress...for real. It's so unique and so completely perfect for her! I also love that my last bride under the Green Shoes Weddings & Events name is wearing green shoes. Lovely coincidence, don't you think?

Here are a few of Karen & Kurt's engagement photos taken by Chuck Eaton.

So much love & congratulations to Kurt & Karen! I wish you tons of love, happiness, and enough crossword puzzles and games of Scrabble to last you a lifetime!

Cheers!

Congratulations! :: {Kelly + Johnny's Wedding Day!}

Today is THE day! I can't wait to see how all of Kelly's super fun green, black & white details come together! I've had SO much fun over the past year working with Kelly on the fun touches for her & Johnny's wedding at the Rumbling Bald Resort and I am already looking forward to lots of fun images from Krista Faulkner (which I will, of course, gladly share on the blog!)

I also thought this would be a good time to post a "sneak peek" of a picture I snapped during Kelly's bridal portraits...how fun are the shoes?!

Congratulations, Kelly & Johnny! Best Wishes for a lifetime of love & laughter!

Jennifer & Craig: Married in St. Louis

Jennifer & Craig were married in their hometown of St. Louis, MO this past July. Jennifer is one of my best friends and I was happy to lend a helping hand to her planning process. Jen & Craig were technically married last November in a courthouse ceremony, but then decided they wanted to make it "official" in the Catholic church with the white dress, reception, & their friends and family present with them. I wanted to share a few of my fave images from their day!
