When little kids go to school, they are taught to be “bucket fillers”.  I remember my own little girls coming home excitedly to tell me that they had learned all about people who were “bucket dippers” and “bucket fillers”.  A bucket dipper takes water out of your bucket, and leaves you empty.  A “bucket filler”, […]

  The Golden Horseshoe Inn was definitely in a New York state of mind for John and Kayla’s beautiful wedding day!  So many guests traveled from out of town to be a part of this special day.  Many came from New York, and we were charmed by their accents, and their deep love for one […]

During a quiet moment on Tammy and Stan’s wedding day, Tammy’s son Logan pulled her aside and said “I was watching you during the ceremony mom, with all the mist swirling around you, and I thought to myself, wow, she is literally on cloud nine”.  So despite the rain and fog, everyone began referring to […]

  Our bride Margaret’s shoe game is strong…very strong.  So, if you’ve ever thought to yourself, “I think I’ll be the first bride to wear Lemon Meringue Pie themed shoes on my wedding day”, I am sorry to tell you that you are a few days too late 🙂  Margaret looked adorable at every wedding […]

Snuggled in the back seat, on the drive to the mountain top, Ryan said to Cara “so how did your morning go?” and she replied with a laugh “hair was interesting…the beginning stages of ‘the pouf’ are truly terrifying”.  This sort of sums up Cara and Ryan for me.  They are just so light-hearted and […]

I met our bride Danielle for the first time when she arrived for her tour of the Golden Horseshoe Inn.  By the time her tour was finished, I felt like I had known her forever, and we just knew we would be working together to plan a wonderful (stress-free!) wedding day!  Danielle is such a […]

Sometimes I think that the wedding industry likes to make couples feel like they have to spend a year (or longer) planning their big day – I’m sure the thought is that…the longer a couple plans, the longer they shop as well!  Michelle and Brandon’s gorgeous, heartfelt wedding proves that even a short planning time […]

Tracy and Wayne stepped out of a magazine and into the Golden Horseshoe Inn – it sure felt that way anyhow!  A gorgeous classic couple, who brought a gorgeous classic car (I really did feel like I was shooting magazine photos when Wayne helped his stunning bride up onto the hood of the car!)  We […]

Tuesdays are photo editing days.  They are long, but fun.  I love reliving the memories of the past weekend as I sort through the photos, looking for little gems to share as a sneak peek!  Honestly, today, my cheeks actually hurt from smiling so much.  This was such a joyful wedding day, and that joy […]

We definitely needed more Kleenex.  All the Kleenex.  There were more happy tears at this wedding than I think I have ever seen 🙂  And that makes me happy (and a little teary!) too, because it means these people love each other so much.  It is hard to watch your children grow, and turn into […]
