Some of you may remember this sweet couple’s engagement session from last July which you can see here. We originally met Amanda years ago through her Sister’s wedding and it became one of our favorite situations to where we all clicked so well with the whole family that we now had the honor to be a part of her wedding as well and then after meeting Jeremiah and getting to know him a little more in conversation, we realized that he’s hilarious and that we were just going to enjoy their wedding day so much. Not only did it take place at the venue that we got married at, Windsor Manor, they also broke out some amazing surprises like the old school Bentley and we got to work with amazing vendors.
The day started with us meeting up with our third shooter and dropping Logan off with Morgan’s parents then once we arrived at the venue, we talked with Tracy of Tracy Yahn Events who was the planner/coordinator to catch up a little bit and show our third shooter around a bit. When we made our way upstairs we said hey to all of the guys briefly and then said hey to all of the girls as well as gathering the details to photograph them. After photographing the details, we made our way into the getting ready photos where I went with the guys and as the girls were finishing up, we took Jeremiah out to the ceremony area for their first look. As Amanda came out and stood behind him, we all stepped back to let them enjoy their moment as much as possible and it was all smiles the entire time. They are such an adorable and happy couple and their friends and family watching off in the distance enjoyed it so much that they were smiling as well. From here we went to do their group photos with the entire wedding party and a little bit of family that was present at the time for the photos and just a few of Amanda and Jeremiah.
The ceremony started and you could feel the shift and reverence for the moment happen. Everyone was holding back tears of joy for most of the ceremony and it was beautiful to see. Once everyone was in place for the Bride to come, we saw Jeremiah’s Mom crying and Jeremiah himself did a great job of holding back the tears and smiling. As she was standing in front of him ready and they joined hands, there were a lot of moments of joy and laughter as well as holding back tears. After they said their I do’s, they kissed then her sister Sarah handed the flowers over for them to walk back up the aisle together as the Robinsons. From here they celebrated once they made it out of the ceremony space with a kiss and big hug. As we started to get ready for family formals, there was a bittersweet moment of everyone hugging and crying since Jeremiah and Amanda would basically be moving across the states immediately because of him being stationed elsewhere. We didn’t know they were moving yet but it was such a beautiful and heavy thing to witness how close their friends held them and would miss them but everyone switched back pretty quickly to smiling for the photos with those they love. Once we had finished out the full list and a few others, we did some couples portraits around the grounds quickly so that Amanda could have her dress bustled then also change her shoes as we made our way to get ready for the reception.
As the dj announced the wedding party by names, they entered into the reception and formed a line to watch the dances. As the newlyweds danced, they smiled a lot and exchanged laughs. Then the Bride and her Father danced which seemed to bring some tears with it both for the Bride and her Sister which made for beautiful family bond moments to be seen which carried through into the speeches as well. These were filled with fond memories of how they met the couple individually and even more stories from their past. After that moment, it was time for the joyful reception to kick off into dancing. There were a ton of fun moments so it was hard to really put them all into this blog but, know that the photos and videos are there and you will see more of those! Eventually, we came to that moment where they leave and in this case everyone got to blow bubbles at the couple as they exited. Once they got into the Bentley to ride away, there were just a few more hugs and kisses to give as a big last goodbye for now. They rode off towards their honeymoon which would take them to Disney and then a beautiful Cruise as well. We’re honored to have been a part of this perfect day and can’t wait to see what all this amazing couple accomplishes as just seeing them come back to visit as well.
