Here we go! Another of my favorite weddings of the year! I knew from the get go this was going to be an incredibly special day to photograph. Kurt and Jess are such free spirits and sooooo in love with life and each other. I learned this immediately during their engagement session earlier this year. They have boundless energy and are always smiling and loving each other, making the pictures so full of life – and my job very, very easy. Both their wedding and reception took place outside on the rooftop terrace at the Hyatt in downtown St. Louis. So beautiful! They had one really unique idea that I loved and had never seen before… There were two acoustic guitarists – Greg Crittenden and Luke Prize – that played as guests were being seated, as the bride walked in, and also during their vows and all throughout the ceremony. The song selections were perfect and it created such an incredible vibe…. very tastefully done. Jess and Kurt wrote their own wedding vows which were so sweet and had everyone in tears. Lots of happy tears throughout the entire day, I must say. One of my other favorite parts was during their reception… They had all their guest light giant sparklers which lined the perimeter of the dance floor during their first dance. It was magical and such a great idea if you’re doing an outside reception. Jess & Kurt thank you so much for having us be a part of all this magic!
