I hope you’re nice and comfy because this is going to be a long post!  I was so very honored that Natalie and Xavier choose me to be their wedding photographer.  On a lovely day in June they got married at Whitemarsh Valley Country Club, where Natalie’s mom Donna is the Banquet Sales Manager.  They meticulously planned an amazing wedding and I cannot wait to share it all with you!

We began the day at Donna’s house, where Natalie grew up.  I showed up to all the beautiful details neatly lined up and waiting for me – swoon!

Natalie specifically requested a photo of the wedding bands on her parent’s piano.

GORGEOUS flowers by Robertson’s Flowers… highly recommend them!

Natalie opening a wedding present from Xavier… these beautiful pearls. So sweet!

The gorgeous bride!

Seeing her dad for the first time…

While I was with Natalie while she was getting ready my awesome second shooter Tim was getting great portraits of Xavier.

Natalie and Xavier opted to see each other before the ceremony in order to have plenty of time for portraits (often a great idea!).  Xavier had a very emotion reaction, so very adorable!

Favorite!

Natalie told me a story about how this tree is super old and cool but I can’t remember the details… looks pretty awesome though!

Natalie and her lovely bridesmaids.  Love the beautiful dresses – such a pretty color!

The guys didn’t look so bad either…

Seriously, how stunning is Natalie!   Definitely the best bridal arms I’ve ever seen.  I’m going to have to start boxing like she does 🙂

Love this shot Tim grabbed!

Then off to the church to get maa-a-a-ried!

Natalie is a teacher and had some of her students give out programs – totally adorable.  She also had an adorable flower girl.

Proud dad walking Natalie down the aisle.

Clearly they are very happy to be getting married.

Married!

After the ceremony we headed over to the venue cite for some more portraits, featuring the cathedral veil Natalie wore for the ceremony.

Favorite!

The details at the venue were ahhh-mazing!  Check out a few below and even more in the slideshow at the very bottom of the page.

I always love teeny arrangements mixed in with larger arrangements.

The stunning cake.  Yes, those are sugar flowers!  It smelled absolutely delicious.

First dance!

We snuck outside for a few more photos at sunset – unfortunately it was a bit cloudy but I’m glad we took some time for a few more portraits.

Love this shot of Xavier and Natalie in the photobook – adorable!
