Natalie and John were married this weekend in the Sacramento wine country near the town of Jackson. The beautiful woods and sweeping view at the residence made a great location for their outdoor evening ceremony and night-time reception.
You may recall that I did an engagement session with Natalie and John last November. I learned back then what they were planning for their wedding – it was exciting to see it all come together!
I thought I’d do something different for this blog post. Instead of highlighting ten or so images, I thought I’d tell a mini-version of Natalie and John’s wedding story. It’s a very abbreviated story of their day – just a small fraction of all their images – starting from the beginning to the last photo of their wedding coverage.
Before we start, let’s meet Natalie and John!
We started with Natalie and her bridesmaids having some fun before the ceremony.
The house had a great jukebox!
The guys were having fun before the ceremony, too, of course!
Now, the ceremony is about to start – we really did a fast-forward in time!
They had a beautiful outdoor ceremony.
The first kiss!
After the ceremony, we got photos of the bridal party all together. Don’t they make great zombies!
While the guests enjoyed appetizers and drinks, Natalie, John and I went off for a little while and took bride-and-groom photos.
The last shot we got before the reception was Natalie and John showing their wedding rings.
Now we’ll really fast-forward for the sake of the story – skipping most of the reception, the toasts, and lots of photos – all the way to the first dance. It was a beautiful night outdoors.
Finally, we’ll skip one more time to the end of the evening. John and Natalie, husband and wife, share a moment away from the reception.
So, that’s a very abbreviated version of Natalie and John’s wedding story. I hope you enjoyed it!
