Meresseit and Randy had such a fun wedding day! The amazing details they put together are matched by what a great couple they are. The love they have for their friends and family as well as each other is just contagious and I immediately felt like I had known them forever. Also, their “first look” was one of my favorites! I really can’t say enough good things about this wedding. From meeting a new vendor friend in amazing make-up artist Jatia (Looks by Lady Amour) to the delicious food (Meresseit is a food blogger!) to the gorgeous venue – everything fit perfectly. Here are some highlights from their day:The bride had such beautiful details that put together her whole look.One of my favorite “first looks”!Just look at the way he looks at her! So sweet!
Meresseit’s niece was her flower girl and Randy’s son was the ring bearer.

One is infatuated and the other can’t look!Jumping the broom! Immediately following the ceremony, guests enjoyed an outdoor cocktail hour while the reception was being set-up.
The bride enjoyed her signature cocktail while updating her make-up to a “smokey-eye” for the reception.
Such gorgeous details!
After the delicious meal, their were some very hilarious and heartfelt toasts and the father-daughter and mother-son dances. A little cake cutting and a little dancing with their wedding guests. Their shoe game was so on point. Seriously.

We finished out the day with a few more couple’s shots at sunset. Thank you so much for choosing us, Meresseit and Randy! We had such an amazing time working with you both and wish you a happy and blessed marriage.
