Are you ready for a billion photos of Katherine & Josh’s Harmony Chapel wedding in Denton?  Of course you are.  You may remember them from their super fun engagement session.  They are so chill and laid back, and I can’t tell you how much I loved seeing them interact with each other.  Katherine looks at Josh with so much love and admiration, and he treats her with so much respec,t it makes me want to go home and love my wife better.

The ladies started by getting all dolled up at Headlines Hair Design.  Sydney crushed the hair and make up.  You Dallas peeps should for sure check her out.

Ready for battle.

You can start getting excited about Harmony Chapel now.

You know how there is always that ONE girl who kinda giggles through the prayer.

One of the bridesmaids has a fancy pants job at New Balance, which we love. (These are the ones my wife wears.) Anyway, she spent most of the day trying to talk the flower girl out of her shoe choice.

First Look magic.

Sarah from Gathered Floral did the best flowers ever.  The best.

Flower girl again, flaunting her footwear choice.

Hey look. I managed to get the little lady to look my way.  A Christmas miracle.

Josh loves cars.  He was super hyped about his getaway car. I think it’s like a Ford Mustang or something.

The sweetest thing was how all day long Josh would not take his eyes off Katherine.  This was especially true when she came down the aisle.

One of the bridesmaids recited the best poem about love and owning a dog.  Here is a snippet:

“On cold winter nights, love is warm.
It lies between you and lives and breathes
and makes funny noises.
Love wakes you up all hours of the night with its needs.
It needs to be fed so it will grow and stay healthy.”

You should go read the whole thing.

More car photos. (I think he just got married as an excuse to be near the car.)

I finally had enough and made him pose next to it like a Backstreet Boy.

Dancing, dancing, and more dancing.

And then, just when the day could not get any better, it started snowing during their get away.

(The snow came from that brown bag.)

Of course they had The Mug Machine.  Here are a few of my favorites.

Thank you two for trusting me with your day.  Your tender hearts and sweet spirits were a joy to document. So excited for you to share your first of many, many Christmas days together.

I LOVED these two 5 minutes into their engagement session so I was truly honored that they flew me out to Colorado for their wedding.  In other news… Denver in February is cold.

This was my second wedding at a Noah’s Event Center.  These venues have their act together ladies.  You should check them out.

It was so so cold, the bridesmaids did great jumping outside for a few photos… the flower girls…. not so much. :)

Jonathan may have teared up a bit at the sight of his bride.

Their friends managed the perfect balance of saying nice things about the bride and groom and saying embarrassing things about the bride and groom. :)

Again, thank you guys so much for trusting me with your day and all the images leading up to it.

So the same day I did Brianne’s snow bridal session I snuck one of my favorite 2010 couples out into the cold for a few photos.  I knew from their kick butt engagement session that these guys would do great in any setting.  Here are a few of my favorites.

I’m really looking forward to Jean’s bridal session!

So last time it snowed you were treated to a couple of posts of my kids outside playing.  Well, this time, we played even harder, but I’m pretty sure you’re tired of seeing them so how about a bridal session in the snow!  I called a few of my past brides yesterday morning and told them if they were in town and could throw their dress on they would be treated to a free bridal session.  Brianne was an Elmwood Gardens bride a couple of years ago and she called me back right away and was ready to go in 1 hour.  (Did you catch that ladies? She went from sitting at home with her 2 year old, to in a dress, hair up, makeup on in 1 hour!!!!  No more excuses about running late on the wedding day.)

She told me every time she sees her wedding dress she wishes she could put it on and wear it around again so I was thrilled to make her Christmas wish come true. :)

Two quick facts about the session.
1: I only wore sweatpants and a t-shirt so that I would be reminded of how cold it was outside and not freeze her to death.
2. We were only outside a total of 9 minutes.  It was my shortest bridal session ever, but I’m pretty happy with the results.
