Caroline & Peter • Northriver Yacht Club, Tuscaloosa, AL

My goodness, where do I start? Considering how long I’ve been thinking about this blog post, I have to admit, I’m still out of words.

Caroline & Peter’s wedding was just breathtaking! What a way to stat off life together! I can say with no doubt that everybody had the best time, and I mean the VERY best time! Tuscaloosa people sure know how to celebrate a couple and the band did such an *amazing* job – honestly … best band I have ever heard at a wedding! Caroline’s mom did such a beautiful job making everything look SO beautiful and making everybody feel so welcome and the venue … my goodness!! I really don’t know what to say, I know this wedding will stick with me for a long, long time, I hope everybody will enjoy the little peek into their huge set.

Caroline & Peter, you are a wonderful, sweet, caring couple, I wish you nothing but the best! Congratulations again and thanks for having me! 🙂

Enjoy!

Caroline’s beautiful dress:

My goodness, everything looked just so beautiful, the dress, the glamorous shoes … even the hanger! Can I please have a hanger like that?! Ha!I can’t get over the shoes!!Meet Caroline, the beautiful bride 🙂 Good times, with good friends 🙂 One with her sweet mom too 🙂 Ahhhh, so gorgeous!!I mean, seriously! How gorgeous is she?!?!Soooo beautiful!!And the flowers! Oh my!!! No words!Ahhhh!Meet the handsome groom, Peter 🙂 Caroline & Peter decided to do their photos before the ceremony, so we sneaked to NorthRiver before the reception:Love these!!Ohhhh my gosh!! That look!This one might be my favorite, but then … I like them all!There she is again! SO gorgeous!!Love this one too! 🙂 Meet their HUGE bridal party! That’s 29 people!Handsome group of friends!Don’t blame the photographer for all the photos, haha! I have no idea what happened here … Anybody feeling like being the King of the world on the Titanic? 🙂 Or maybe we got a little breeze? It sure was a HOT, humid day, and the guys (and the bride!) got all my respect staying cool while we were taking photos 🙂 Ok, group hug! Uhm … what’s happening here?There we go! 🙂 And don’t forget … hands in your pockets … it only took a few shots 🙂 There we go 🙂Handsome! 🙂 Everybody likes a casual, chatty photo, right? Uhm guys … hello … anybody still with me? Ha!It’s the ladies turn 🙂

Aaaaahhhh, so beautiful!!How about a chatty shot? 🙂 What should I say? They’re pros!! 🙂 I love all the photos! I have a feeling you girls will be all over my website 🙂Sister! <3BEAUTIFUL sister!!Caroline & Peter celebrated their ceremony at St. FrancisAaaaaaand the photographer is tearing up. Since I have daughters on my own, dads walking their daughters down the aisle make me all teary eyed. What a beautiful church! I am still a little sad that we had to stay in the back, I’ll just never get used to it. It’s sad that some photographers were so disruptive that in some States it’s just not allowed to be on the side / front, but it makes me sad I didn’t get to document any close-ups. 🙁Yay! 🙂 Congrats again!! 🙂

Ahhhhhh, excuse the venue-photos-over-share. Eeeeek, but everything looked SO gorgeous!!!Are you speechless yet? I know I was!!

Those flowers!!My gosh!!!Look at that!! What a place!I know, I know … I’m still not done … I could keep going an going … The cake! My goodness!!!!Ok, last one!These two!! 🙂 Mr. and Mrs. McLean! 🙂 Father / daughter dance … with a dance-crashing grandpa, but I think nobody minded 🙂 Mother / son 🙂 Fun!Ok … are you guys ready for some serious dance shots?! I LOVE a good party! And with that band, backdrop and that AWESOME crowd … I was in heaven 🙂You know it’s a good party if grandpa gets on the dance floor 🙂 Sorry, 3 of these I already posted above … but … in case you missed them, ha!Fun, fun, fun!!Well, that’s it! With 3300 photos I’m calling this a wrap! What an awesome couple, bridal party, venue, day, evening, EVERYTHING! I feel like I need to go on a vacation now, haha!

Hope you enjoyed the photos. I’ll upload some of them to their facebook gallery, so feel free to (re)-visit if you want to leave a comment on a certain photo 🙂
